    I have a hard time understanding the indian-english accent… its quite annoying, because a lot of them make nice content.

      It is very annoying, some accents are hardly understandable.

      However, I’ve found that for every 1 Indian I can’t understand, there are 5 that I can. (stats pulled out of my ass btw).

      Please correct me if I am wrong but I think something like subtitles exist.

        It takes a fair bit of work to produce quality subtitles. So in my experience most youtubers/videocasters rely on machine generated subtitles. The quality on these are sometimes great, often okay, but sometimes pretty bad. It doesn’t currently deal well with all accents, and can struggle on technical subjects that use unusual verbiage (like uncommon words, domain-specific terms, or pronounced acronyms). Still, even mediocre subtitles can help at times.
