All set! Channel: 2ndJerma Your role: Subtitle editor You can add, edit, and remove subtitles. You can't view anything else.
Screenshot of the "Wonders of Archaeology" from 2ndJerma, subtitled. In the Mojave Desert surrounded by opened geodes, Josh Bonde says, "It's been a pleasure, thank you for having me today, and..." and Jerma985 replies, "Yeah, thank—no, seriously, thank you for coming out here and doing this..."
For those who don't know, I'm Jerma's official subtitle editor. I work for free, volunteer only. If you'd like to support what I do, you can do so as well as vote for what video to subtitle next on my Patreon.

I work in captioning because I'm passionate about accessibility and accurate, properly formatted captions in media. Glitch and Wendigoon are fabulous to work for and I am so, so grateful to them for hiring me on! I am professionally trained with years in the industry and I love what I do!
I remind myself every day that I do it for you! #KeepCaptionsHuman
This week, we're highlighting the captioners who make a difference on your favorite online video.
Together, let's #KeepCaptionsHuman!
AI is often sold as perfect solutions to the "problem" of having to create captions and transcripts. That framing, of course, centers creators and producers over the people who actually rely upon the captions and transcripts. But there is no replacement for humans when making content accessible.
This weekend, we nearly tripled our user count with some cool people in the captioning world.
If you've been affected by recent captioning industry changes, or just want to hang out with like-minded people, this server might just be for you!
We are now part of a new movement.
When you #KeepCaptionsHuman, you keep creativity human.
how can we keep calm and carry on now
Closed captioning provided in part by a full cold binge of Bluey this week.
Y'know, for context.

I continue to maintain that Oxford commas and en/em dashes will remain a core part of our captioning style at @caption.plus.
And frankly, the original input and insight we give as captioners and writers should speak for itself more than the flood of automated imitators can take away.

We get comments whenever I do these rare gimmick captions like, "didn't need to go that far".
But in fact, you know what the alternative is?
