YouTube has definitely had a huge impact on this kind of thing. There have been times where I have looked up "how to" instructions and after seeing several pages of written instructions I often just switch and look for a "how to" video instead.
A few years ago I briefly considered making my own YouTube channel for how to videos. I was going to call it "Who's Your Daddy" and it was just going to be a bunch of Dad advice. Something kids or young adults could watch for stuff they should have learned from their Dad or new Dad's can watch for stuff they should teach their kids. It was going to range from things like How to tie a tie, How to change a tire, How to shave, How to cook a fried egg, How to build a campfire, How to tie your shoes, ect. Never went through with it, partially because I figured I would either run out of stuff to do pretty quick or get bogged down by people telling me that I'm doing these things the "wrong" way.
