I do not understand time signatures and can not find videos that explain why they matter.
How is 3/4 and 6/8 different and would a song sound different if a 6/8 song was played in 3/4?
Why not just write every song in common time and move the measure line?

They do not matter for the most part until you try to communicate the rhythm to someone else. Want to keep your entire 100 piece ensemble playing the same time? Gotta write the time signature on the sheet music so everyone can count along with the conductor.
Did you write an interesting guitar riff and you want to communicate with your drummer how it should feel? saying 6/8 communicates a lot in a very short amount of time.
