That mentality is golden with photography and music, but with a program, it's a little different - since people may actually run it, and if there's a massive bug or crash, that's a problem, and it might be a problem that I don't know how to fix. And then a more philosophical thing I've been thinking about... If a program is posted publicly, that means I, or a journalist, or anyone else with a public platform can cover that program. That's generally fine at small scale, I think. But I'm at the mercy of the Youtube algorithm and that's both a blessing and a curse. Last year, I made a video on some cool programs I came across; it ended up at over 400k views at a time when my other videos were getting 5k. The developer(s) of a program might be happy to receive a few new users who love their program, but I'd imagine it can be very annoying if suddenly you have thousands of new users all submitting bug reports and asking for new features. I don't want to do the wrong thing, but I'm also not a production team that can take care of checking with developers of any program that I might mention, and cleaning up every other possible loose end before I cover a program. I just see a program, look at the code, think "oh that's neat" and make a video. Does that make any sense? I have to think about these things now. Maybe I'm overthinking it.
