I love Afrofuturism sci-fi. Always a good time. I also wish Teachable had an easier system for subtitles. They actually recently made it harder to do! They updates their UI a bit- when you upload an .srt file from a place like Otter, sometimes there are small errors in the timestamps. Previously, Teachable would show an error indicating where in the timestamp was the problem so you could easily fix it. Now it just shows a generic error “Captions could not be added due to error”. You have to manually sift through the .srt to find the mismatches or use a different program entirely. For long videos, this feels like a nearly impossible task.
.... what the French toast?! Talk about adding unnecessary complexity. I'm curious their thought process behind that change so I just might do some digging 🧐

I think their thought process was no thought process.
