That’s logical in a way, I never thought about it that way 😄 I understand that you weren’t, I hope you can find a solution for her!

That’s what would have done! But that learning curve would be even steeper.

Thats one way to read it 😄 but at least retired

Research papers in creative cloud? I am guessing she is using something like InDesign or illustrator to make pdfs or maybe Acrobat? I think you need to clarify what her workflow entails to get better answers.

But going with my assumptions, it sounds like she can get away with using some kind of Office suit instead, maybe 365? not that it would solve the enshitification of apps problem… But I do consider it a stable program both as installed apps and on the web. There are also endless tutorials and support to get if she is running into issues.

With that said, it is probably not worth it if she is a boomer. It would take a long time to get into a new workflow and it would affect her output. If she is used to adobe she should probably stick to it.

I still think these channels are very technical. Using jorgon that is completely foreign to someone just strictly using their computer to get work done. I am pretty deep into the different topics and even I had have to look up what they talk about.

I think you have found a nieche to fill. Problem is when you don’t really deep dive the topics or it is strictly educational, you might get bored if you are a somewhat technical person, that is not a great recipe for a YouTube channel. You will probably also have to remake the videos as software gets updated.

Also most viewers är linux nerds. The average person don’t spend all day at a computer at work just to go home and ‘work’ more by spending time watching a videos on how to work more. That means you should probably target companies and organizations directly with your content, that could be a hard sell if you expect to make an income.

With all that said, I like the idea and even if you only make a few videos you will probably learn alot, try it and see how you like it!

Yes, and often incomplete or not maintained.

Anyway, OP read different sources about OOP and still needs to ask the definition… At some point it is better to just do something than to keep banging your head at the theory. If learning to code is your endgoal

You are right. But I still find the ‘heavier’ theory, that is what I assumed OP refered to, to be more difficult to grasp then following a basic tutorial and just trying to solve problems. In time with practice you get a better understanding for WHY the theory is how it is, and you can apply it better and of course improve your code. And that understanding will unlock more tools both in OOP and in your mind.

So if you are struggling, I recommend not starting with theory.

Use it for a while, to complement your theoretical study. Things will only become clearer when you have your own understanding and opinion about it.
