This video has good information. It bothers me when YouTubers collect subscribers and don't bother with the comment section. They tell you, "click like, subscribe and comment" but why bother commenting when most don't answer good questions posed? That's why I don't subscribe to a LOT of channels I'd like to do

I don't get half of the options that you are showing on your screen, so I'm wondering what's the point of your video, when it's not aimed at a base line.

Also, always point at text in the thumbnail. Or grab your chin in wonderment or confusion.
