Please don't post slop, especially without labelling it.

 

Here's a non-slop video on the same channel

Nothing slop about the first post, I found the video very informative.

i don't normally go here, but I think the response was because taking one look at the channel reveals nothing but AI generated thumbnails and some very obvious clickbait.

like seriously, what is with those titles? I don't think this is someone with a vested interest in history, this is for clicks.

The second vid was basically how to make a skep the traditional way. very little (actually next to none) in terms of history, use, harvesting, etc. The first vid (AI generated thumbnails, clickbait titles, etc not withstanding) gave a very good explanation as to what was used before the modern day box apiaries.

I don't normally scrutinize every single video thumbnail to make decide whether or not it's AI generated, but I immediately noticed the little honey pools at the bottom of the skeps were kinda suspicious.


Can't say why, but this trips off my internal AI detector.

Thumbnails aside, this channel actually has some good content in the videos.

If I had to choose seeing this or the "open mouth surprise face" thumbnails, I'd go for the first. Prob just an older dude not aware of the political climate.
