This is what I do anyways because I am too impatient to watch through 15 minutes of blah blah to reach the end and hear, "in my next video I'll actually show you how to dobthe thing that you came here to see."

Give me a decent web page with searchable text and a few pictures (if needed) and I'll be happy.

I was searching on YouTube for seat sizes for a long haul flight and can try to compare different airlines seats. There was so much annoying content that I went to Bing to search (Google is bad now).

That was also pretty bad. I ended up using chatGPT and gave me the answer in 1 minute.
