Post the names of youtubers and other internet microcelebs you love with a burning passion based on more than vibes. Very preferably not large.

A good example is Cathode Ray Dude, who makes long videos on older technology. He doesn’t seem to have done anything reactionary, he’s got a personality far beyond “the algorithm”, and he doesn’t associate with any terrible people. And I enjoy his videos.

Cathode Ray Dude- mentioned elsewhere as well, generally cool dude

Tech Tangents - haven’t seen mentioned, another old tech guy that stays in his lane politically and makes cool content

Technology Connections - my favorite “well technically” nerd

VWestlife - a gem of youtube, untarnished by advertisers or thr algorithm

Dr. Angela Collier - Smart Science Dr who makes cool commie adjacent videos

Ethoslab - my one parasocial relationship is this reclusive canadian minecrafter who uploads once a month and I mostly catch on other peoples server streams

Robot Cantina - old dude that’s making diesel electric batter vehicles out of his garage for cheap, really cool electrical and mechanical engineering going on with just one dude, fabrication as well.
