Scott's YouTube videos have really deteriorated. He seems to be fond of using the term, "shit weasels" at the beginning and later in his videos. For example, one yesterday: [Zettelkasten & Writing (Behind The Scenes) - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-sHtYEEzUk), and takes an extreme depreciating tone to any reference to digital notetaking. It's a turnoff for me.
p.s. For someone who claims to be making $40,000 per month, you would think he would get a better desk to write on -- or at least, put a coat of varnish on the 4x8 plywood he uses!
Hard to understand why another writer would make the effort and include personal issues in the comments. Maybe it could be considered a reality TV strategy - see if stirring up a controversy will interest readers.
Yes, I suppose that applies to me as well. I've been transferring posts I had originally made on Lifelong Learners, and I considered leaving this one out. But then I read the thing Scott had sent out and got annoyed once again. Probably a mistake.

I watched it. He nearly made a useful point about note-making, but it was buried in a deluge of negativity that was really unpleasant.
Tacky is an understatement.....
