Im done with D.I.Y

 I'm not making any more "D.I.Y." content.  Instead, I'm just doing, "D.I" content instead. "D.I" being just "Do It", of course.  

My point in saying so is that the algorithms on most platforms seem to have gotten stuck into niches of doing things like, "Woodworking", "DIY" (referring usually to derision or low capability things), and so-called "Pro" stuff which is usually selling something or trying to one-up someone else.

Even general "How To" content gets broken into such sub categories for the most part.  Thank God we still have "This Old House", and Norm Abrams that don't patronize us.

But that's kind of my point, the fact that there's not much more that has a general, "here's how to do this" than "This Old House" and "New Yankee Workshop" to point out, is disappointing to me.

So, I've struggled over the past year or so to make videos and other content trying to help somehow and allowed myself to be limited by those categorizations.   As a result, I haven't made many or very often. Also, they wandered, trying to be too much for too many.

So I'm going to try to make the kind of content that I look for.  How To tasks and projects that don't try to over simplify or cater to an artificial sub-category.  Just, here's how to do X task or project.  It may show only one way to do things.  It might cover multiple, situational, ways to do things.

I'm thinking of looking at it as the handyman's this old house.  I'll get a couple videos going and let's see how this goes.
