I get people that make tutorials for “content” even if they suck at their job, but I CANNOT get over video tutorials where someone gets completely lost and doesn’t cut it out of the video.
Anyways we’ll go here-oh there’s an error. Uhm. Maybe we can do this? That didn’t work. Maybe that? Hang on, maybe it’s in preferences? Oh, it’s in tools, no, wait, oh I just wrote the name wrong
Would it kill you to edit that out and stop wasting my time?!
When you solve the issue, take a pause and then walk back the problem and how to fix it.
If it’s a “forgot where something was”, take a pause then start with “sorry bout that, it’s this…”.
Own the mistake, learn from it, let others learn from it. But dont waste everyone’s time
To me in most cases it’s the opposite. I don’t watch video tutorials to solve a specific problem (sorry, Roal Van de Paar!), but to get into something. And therefore I prefer to see the problem solving in between and the workflow for that activity. If it really tends to waste my time, I just skip forward.

I think those are more interesting. I like seeing the process.
