Reviews, Overviews, or Opinions? (Patreon)
Content
I've had trouble categorizing Distro Delves episodes since I started the series.
I thought they were reviews at first. But I'm pragmatic and I know my use-cases only scratch the surface of what a Linux distro is capable of and I simply don't have the time to do complete end-to-end reviews.
A Distro Delves episode has a little bit of everything, even benchmark results. But if I'm not comparing distros against one another, what is the point?
I've started calling them "overviews" but a standard episode covers quite a bit more than what I think of when I read "distro overview".
When I watch my own videos, I find the parts where I'm just riffing and giving my own opinion the most interesting. And yes, I know how weird it sounds saying my own opinion is interesting.
What do you guys think? Are these reviews, overviews, or opinions? I'm thinking of "Opinion" pieces from newspapers and publications here. The writer has an opinion about something relevant and that's kind of what I'm doing in Distro Delves, right?
