Seriously, I agree. Good pictures and well written instructions are my preference. The vast majority of instructional videos I've found are terrible. I can read way faster than people talk, and so many videos are poorly shot and lit.

I've been researching about quilting, in particular a method known as "quilt as you go." Easily 90% of the videos I've looked at were flat out useless to me. I did find 2 YouTube channels by quilters who seem to know what they are doing when making videos. But geez, so much drek.

And I realize a person's voice can't be helped. But the vocal burn and the high pitched voices send my scrambling for the stop button. Or the giggling. Lots of giggling in sewing videos. Not sure why.
