I'm the same way. Videos either move too fast or too slow and generally both at the same time. That and I hate having to pause a video to view the code.
I've asked this question in other programming forums and always get a mixed response. For some people, videos are the only way to learn. For others, text is the only way to learn. And then there are many in between that choose the form of learning based on the topic.
Youtube videos are nice since you can change the playback speed. Tutorials on other platforms might not have that.
Also, for me, I could control Youtube with the play/pause button on my keyboard even when it's not the active window. J,K,L shortcuts are useful when Youtube is the active window for skip, pause, and forward.
