Well, you are right, of course, for landscapes, but for street photography or at museums, etc., tripods are unusable. So it depends on the situation and style.
Great video, and so true. I have been using a tripod for a few years and cannot imagine life without it. The comment about taking your time is spot on, and in addition, I also use a geared head. Ball heads are awful to operate and fine-tuning is not possible. I can also recommend spikes at the end of the tripod, giving some additional stability outside. I also use a remote shutter device, that offers me to step away from the tripod. This is especially important during night photography when I am light painting the object. Additionally, I love your channel, and I hope you can grow it. Please keep it the way it is, without a stupid intro and no annoying background music. I also love your energetic and engaging, pleasant manner. Keep it going. Thank you for doing this.
interesting timing for this video, I just started shopping for a new travel tripod, as my current tripod is ancient aluminum and heavy as bricks (and the friction pads are done inside).
Sorry, but unless it’s low light or you’re setting up for a specific photo, some of my best photos I’ve taken are on the moment, where the conditions are just right for maybe a few seconds
I don’t use a monopod because I like to let go of the camera/tripod walk about waiting for light etc. It kinda does half the job but obviously much easier to deploy and lighter.

Ok my tip slow down take time
Study scene for best composition
Tri pod slows you. Steady you. So agree
Great advise for everyone. Thank you. The gear heads are superb, I have the exact same one as you and love it.....Thank you...Colin Devon UK

Monopods? Thoughts?

4:32 :D sorry but PROs don't show one same photo in every single video ...
I'm not a pro. I've been doing photography for about 12-months.
