Ask Lemmy

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

acollierastro — Angela Collier

Astrophysics, science communication and random rants

Posy, I am surprised at que quality of his videos, they are incredibly artistic

Harry Mack. Greatest off-top freestyler ever (except maybe Juice WRLD, but that's apples and oranges). Folks are sad about the end of Omegle Bars, but I've always thought Wordplay Wednesdays is his best format.

A few I haven't seen show up yet:

• Brick Immortar, bunch of good videos on maritime incidents
• Maritime Horrors, same category as above, great quality stuff
• Pulsar, Lemmino-style documentaries

He posts infrequently but Sean Hodgins videos keep getting better. Don't let the thumbnails fool you, he puts a ton of work into them. It's hard to describe, it's mostly him showing off his projects but they have an analogue/80s cyberpunk feel in the way he tells his story, the music that's played, and how he edits the videos together.

• 3balsue1brown
• Kathy Loves Physics & History. I like that she stays in her lane and hasn't deviated from electricity and history.
• freecodecamp, each video is a course that's several hours long.

Would like to throw in Atomic Frontier, he makes on-location video essays about random science and engineering topics that are edited with great supporting infographics

I think Addy Valentine is the most underappreciated YouTuber when compared to his production quality.

Less than 4k subscribers, but without a doubt the highest quality videos in the entire Game Developer section of YouTube.

Some I haven't seen after scrolling for a while

Maangchi - she made me fall in love with Korean food

Future Canoe - only if you want radioactive chicken

Explanation Point - mostly reviews anime. Good style, recovered incel

Scamboli Reviews - mostly reviews anime also, IDK

Joov (IDK is he high quality)

North of the Border - umm clay art. Just watched reverse centaur, it was a thing indeed

Unresolved Textual Tension - book reviews, I'm here for Will's sass but Maria and Katie are good too

Ordinary Sausage - actually extraordinary

John Maclean - I wish I was as pretty as he is

Steve Mould - my son says he is "Steve Mould the science gold" (to the tune of Bill Nye)

I'm probably missing somebody but this is a good weird list

Beau Miles. He is just so different. His content really challenges my cynicism.

Robbaz on the rare yearly upload

i think AVGN still posts quality, especially since its been almost 20 years of AVGN. but it depends on who you ask

You Suck At Cooking

The Why Files

Haven't seen it listed so here I present..

My Mechanics

Swiss guy restores random stuff to better than new. Posts about 4 or 5 times a year, but the quality is up to 11
