Just curious – any particular reason why did you choose to use long youtube videos [0] instead of rendering the visualization in-page (with D3 or something)?

My goal was first to create those videos. 3 months later I have decided to integrate them with website. Now I agree, that it looks cumbersome.

And why is there not a slider so I can drag the time around and see how it looks later?

There is an input box above those videos, where you can specify the number from where do you want to watch. Example: https://prime-numbers.info/special/visual-type-comparison#pr...

Individual types have player with scrollbar- https://prime-numbers.info/article/semiprimes
