I went through my subscription list on FreeTube and filtered these out (the list was much lengthier initially :p)
- Alt Shift X — well detailed and narrated videos about fantasy series such as Dune, ASOIAF.
- Captain Disillusion — very well made videos about VFX.
- Computerphile — computer science twin of Numberphile; neat videos about the field with a wide range of guests.
- EthosLab — pretty much the only Minecraft creator I still watch; witty, quiet and virtually the same for a long time.
- hbomberguy — well known video essayist, easily one of the best in the platform
- Jacob Geller — another quality essayist, exploring different themes, such as horror
- Lemino — very well known creator focusing on mysteries, with incredible narration and stunning visuals
- LockPickingLawyer — very simple, to the point and informative channel about locks and lockpicking; also virtually unchanged for years
- Oversimplified — great overviews of major history events and periods, with funny narration and visuals
- Tantacrul — fairly unknown essayist on music, with well researched material and nice takes :P
- Then & Now — possibly my favorite atm (alongside hbomberguy); extremely well researched and presented video essays about history, politics and philosophy; very underrated imo
Did not expect the ethoslab shout out, I fell off a while back but I followed his videos pretty religiously for many years back in the 2010s; even when I was going through times where I burned myself out on playing MC.
Dude is super wholesome and I loved how his videos kinda just felt like hanging out with a friend. Ive checked on him since and I respect that he has not changed at all, love him dearly. But it just doesnt hit the same for me as it did back then. I hope he keeps doing what he loves as long as that’s still the case!
I guess a lot of people on Lemmy indirectly know Tantacrul, he’s the product manager for Audacity and head of design for MuseScore.
Wish over simplified was still a thing. They moved to patreon for getting demonetized having videos about war.
Oh really? Was not aware of that at all. Their recent videos about the second Punic Wars were incredible.
I agree, but go to their channel and see how often they release content now vs a couple years ago. It’s like he covers one thing a year now.
