1) OLED monitors still have a fighting chance, don't let ignorance and FUD cloud your judgement. Our article on the topic explores some of this progress and the future direction of things. They have been implemented successfully in laptops and medical-grade applications without any image retention issues. JOLED have a great 21.5" panel which ASUS should be using in an upcoming model and they plan to be making larger ones in various useful monitor sizes (in 2020, all going well). I said "and QLED" so don't take things out of context and don't mistake slow and expensive progress with lack of progress. You're correct about MicroLED, but that is also some way off and is as yet an unproven technology. A lot needs to be done before it can be scaled down to monitor sizes. I've had that signature for ages, BTW, long before MicroLED was on the radar.
2) People love my YouTube videos and my subscribers are growing daily, I haven't been doing the video review side of things for long. I get a lot of encouragement and loads of positive comments, if I didn't I would've stopped a long time ago. I am not a natural photographer or videographer, I don't have my own production studio nor the time to dedicate to 'beautifying' the videos or re-shooting things lots of times. Fortunately many people aren't so shallow that they can't see past cosmetic or pretentious crap. They understand the content itself is extremely detailed, unique and valuable. Hopefully you're not one of those people who thinks you can gauge what a monitor actually looks like through a video? I will be increasing the resolution of the videos beyond '1080p' when I have a newer camera, if that's what you meant, but I won't be changing the style of the videos.
3) I don't agree that pixel response time measurements are the way to go. Not going to discuss this in detail here, but basically there are 255 shade levels and websites that measure only some of the transitions (only reasonable) often give an incomplete or potentially misleading picture of performance. There's room for that kind of analysis, it has its place and TFT Central gives a more complete picture than some sites which I won't name - I like their measurements and find them useful. But it isn't something I agree with for my own site as there aren't enough hours in the day to do it properly on top of the other assessment I like to do. I prefer subjective, photographic and video analysis. Many people like this method of assessment which is done in a unique way on my site, especially if they understand some limitations with the alternative.
You see, I have my own way of doing things and it works for me and most of my readership/viewership. I'm only one person (others do help out with 'second opinions' on subjective assessment), I have a day job and I dedicate as much time and effort as I can into my passion. Some people have absolutely no idea how much time and effort it takes to do what I do, they also have no idea that I'm not paid a salary by anybody to do so and don't have a big team behind me. I'm sure Baddass feels the same way sometimes, there's a lot of ignorance surrounding what we do and people often have unrealistic expectations.
So what exactly were you looking for? I think from your second post I have some idea, more so than from your initial post. I was simply defending the way I do things. There are some things I can change, some things I can't (or won't).
