Waste of time sub-sites that should instead be merged into Stack Overflow as different tags.

Some people have been creating YouTube channels that just post and go over a large number of Stack Exchange questions, some of them with a quick random intro video. Perfectly legal due to CC BY-SA but really weird stuff!
- Roel Van de Paar www.youtube.com/@RoelVandePaar. This one seems to be the OG.
