What's your go-to long form Youtuber?
What's your go-to long form Youtuber?
Title essentially. Youtube's algorithm is hot garbage, so I can't search for anything anymore without a ton of AI slop and rage bait. So, who do you go to for actual good long form videos? Exposes, scandals, behind the scenes, documentaries, film, travel, transit, who do you recommend I follow?
You're viewing a single thread.
Because I manually download videos to watch on the bus or train (thanks Grayjay & NewPipe), most of my subscriptions are for long-form, often listenable content:
Retro Tech: Techmoan, Technology Connections, Posy, Janus Cycle, CRD, Ben Eater, DiodeGoneWild, pannenkoek2012, videolabguy, Adrian's Digital Basement,The Science Elf, previously LGR and 8-Bit Guy/Keys
Science: Kuvina Saydaki, BobbyBroccoli, Numberphile, Computerphile, carykh
Tech News & Discussion (not always long-form): Louis Rossmann, Mental Outlaw, Brodie Robertson, SomeOrdinaryGamers, Asianometry, Atomic Shrimp, previously Thunderf00t
Urbanism: Not Just Bikes, Adam Something, Alan Fisher, Tramly, BritMonkey
D&D Story Narration: CritCrab, Puffin Forest
Bold channels are most underrated imo
Check out nebula. Lots of overlap and downloads well.
So I can subscribe for 1 month, download all the exclusive content, and then turn my membership off/back on based on the value I think I'm getting?
media.ccc.de is a great specialized "streaming service" too, mostly supported by NewPipe (oddly not Grayjay yet). I can understand German decently so I don't have issues with the bilingual content. If you like Chaos Congress talks, you can also try DEFCON and other ones available on YouTube but I didn't feel like including any of them because they're just uploads of slightly different kinds of media, much like HBO's Last Week Tonight channel I also subscribe to.
