Inspired by this post but the other way around. Which channels (any subject) do you think have stayed true to their beginnings and are still worth watching today?
My pick would be Gamers Nexus.
This Old Tony. He doesn’t post a lot anymore, but everything he posts is gold.
Lock Picking Lawyer. Short, to the point and always entertaining.
Dale Philip. Best travel vlog on YouTube. Just a dude and his camera.
Just Have a Think.
Joe Scott.
Sabine Hossenfelder. I don’t understand most of what she talks about, but I like her moxie.
Wheezy Waiter.
Undecided with Matt Ferrell.
Technology Connection. Until recently, the past few years, it felt like he barely grasped the subject he was talking about. I like his vibe, he’s true to himself.
Techmoan.
Dr Geoff Lindsey. Linguist. Talks about the English language.
Sabine Hossenfelder.
Not anymore, I would say.
She took an uncool turn towards bitter, right-wing-elitist-influenced ideas recently.That and her over-the-top whining about the scientific establishment made me stop following her channel a few weeks ago.
Veritsasium has never left me feeling like I didn’t learn something. The quality has always been top tier.
Take anything vetitasium says with a significant pinch of salt, I’m afraid. Several times, when he’s discussed something I’m knowledgeable in, he’s exaggerated or dramatised to the point of outright untruth
You Suck At Cooking
Primitive Technology
3Blue1Brown if you are somewhat deeper into maths.
And as a German I am very fond of rewboss, a Brit doing an English language channel with very well grounded deep dives into culture, language and hidden sights.
Veritasium, b1m, nile red & blue, big Clive
