I did try both approaches and I do find that YouTube is a different medium. And I think to get the best out of it, you have to cater to the audience that's on YouTube. And that audience prefers the content to be a bit punchier, a bit like more to the point, right? Like don't lose the audience because they have certain expectations. And we're not even talking shorts. Shorts is completely different.

Right? So this is just when you put a video on YouTube. Yes. Great. But I think the transitions, they need to be a bit quicker than you would have in a conversation.

I am on the 10th conversation, editing the 10th conversation right now, the one that you saw in drafts. And the conclusion which I reached is that audio has to be separate, right? You focus on a listener, not a watcher. Then you focus on the YouTube audience that they want something quick, they want something free, they want something entertaining.

And then you have to focus on cater to the real nerd. They want to see the whole thing. They want to see like a great cut, but they want to see, they want to immerse themselves in the story. That is not your YouTuber. That is, I don't think that's your listener because especially if you have some video, which is like screen sharing, that is different. And that's more engaging.

That's just basically ups the ante and ups the story and takes it to a whole new level. So those three audiences are very different. And I end up with three types of content, same conversation, three types of content catering to the audience. And again, we're not even talking shorts or Instagram or TikTok, which just requires another approach.

Speaking of improvements, there's one more that I noticed and I was so happy to see Jared do that. Notifications, deploy notifications in Ziggler. That was so cool.

Yeah.
Yeah.
How'd I do it? Let me open it up because it's been a while since I looked at that. And there's no pull request. There's code. So I have to go look at that. That's me. That's me. No pull request. And it's spread across a couple of actually commits. That's also me. Yeah. So you recognize that.

Yeah. The reason why we do it that way or the reason why I prefer to do that way is because it provides an interface to a conversation, right? So if people want to check it out, if people want to, for example, they just want to see the video of how the thing works. Well, you go there. It also allows me to capture a lot more content. Like how do you put a video in a commit message?

Like how do you put a video in a commit message?
I mean, you could put the URL, but then where do you host the video? With a pull request, you can put all this context there to capture why I did it. And it's useful for me as well. So all the previous pull requests that we mentioned, the 533, the 534, there is a section which captures how does that thing work.
