Seeing the other post here about YouTuber that went downhill and seeing content creators I am familiar with makes me sad. But how about those that still makes great, high quality content?

    I love watching Lets Plays and HCBailly is the best let’s player. His quality has only gone up over the years and his consistent upload schedule leaves nothing to be desired. He’s under rated and deserves 3 million subs.

    Makers

    …more in Honytawk’s comment below

    Science + Technology

    • Applied Science - In depth videos about random science-y things this dude finds interesting. No clickbait, just an excited dude talking about a project he tried.

    • Atomic Frontier - A lot like Tom Scott. He’s also a rare case where the video is more interesting than the title/thumbnail. Generally focused on science-y topics + has shockingly high production value considering the dude seems to be an overworked college student.

    • NileRed/NileBlue - Crazy in depth chemistry videos. Personally find NileBlue more entertaining as he tends to explore things he’s not that great at.

    • Practical Engineering - Explanations of various civil engineering concepts.

    Other

        Thanks for the list, I’m sure others will appreciate it!

        I’m actually subscribed to almost all of those channels lmao. I skipped several because I’m being picky, and I mean picky. You probably won’t agree with a lot of my decisions. Here’s what I mean…

        • I did a thing - forgot about him I’ll add him to the list
        • Micheal Reeves - Last real video was a year ago
        • Backyard scientist - Unsubscribed a while ago due to clickbait. From a quick glance his videos seem fine now though.
        • Mark Rober - Video quality has been going downhill. More and more clickbait, and videos seem to spend a lot more time than necessary on “look at our happy family fun time we’re having.”
        • William Osman - I like him just not enough to put him on the list

          I agree. There are not many YouTubers making and people enjoying the absolute tiny niche content I enjoy.

          With your high standards you may like Huygens Optics an old optics engineer who does videos about light simply because he enjoys making them. But the content is niche.

    Climate Town, Adam Something, Not Just Bikes, Contra Points, Hbomberguy, World War Two, The Great War, The Linux Experiment, CivDiv, The Thought Emporium, and there are some others that currently escape my mind.

    I also have GioPizzi and Yotobi but their videos are in Italian.

      Weird including Internet Historian after the Hbomberguy video. Wouldn’t care so much but I found Historian’s statement on it pretty gross. Doesn’t seem to take the plagerism very seriously.

    MrMobile(Michael Fisher) - His video presentation skills 10/10, I specially love his series named when phones were fun, where he fondly talks about yesteryear phones and gadgets.

    Harald Baldr - I may not go to all the places he goes, but the way he interacts with different people irrespective of the barrier of communication is commendable. The way he presents himself in his videos, I believe that’s him in real life as well. No fakery.

    Ze Frank

    Seems like he’s been doing his thing for the entire existence of the internet. Silly little flash animations and games in the early 2000’s and now his ‘true facts’ of animals videos. Seems to keep true to his own style, ever evolving as it may be, but always similar- and maybe thats what I find comforting- he’s been there for most of the 20+ years I’ve been ‘surfin the web’, as the kids like to say.

      I was hoping someone would post ZeFrank! His True Facts series is exactly what education content should be - entertaining, interesting, funny, and most importantly, rigorously sourced and credited to the real life scientists and researchers he bases his info on.

        For more animal facts, check out Isabella Rossellini “Green Porno”. A little more risqué, and a different kind of humor, though interesting and educational as well. It was a Sundance thing from about 10 years ago that was semi ‘viral’ at the time.

    Too many to name. I’m easily on YouTube 2+ hours each day and there’s not exactly lack of quality content
