Tired of seeing the same old youtubers/twitch streamers get recommended/talked about all the time. Do you have some really good small time folks that are amazing?

I’m really into retro video games. The channel I enjoy that the most that has the least number of subscribers is Jeremy Parish. He makes excellent little 10 minute retro game reviews. They are well thought out, include some interesting history, and no hyperbole.

Ummm… I also have a channel. 👀 In some videos I do longer reviews of Game Boy games.

And I post weekly videos where I play random retro games with my silly friend Samantha.

…I wouldn’t say it’s “amazing” but I do really enjoy watching the videos I make. 😅

I don’t follow many people on YouTube so the only person that meets this criteria is Gracie Fitzpeter, who really deserves more views. I absolutely love channels that do overlong in-depth videos on super niche topics that I have zero stake in. She has so many hours of videos on the Warrior Cats series and Resident Evil, and I’ve watched probably all of them. I’ve never read the Warrior Cats books or played Resident Evil. Perfect.

The first one I saw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFFjATF3I30

I’ve been watching this guy’s backlog on building a kernel and bootloader from scratch. A bit monotone but amazing technical knowledge. https://youtube.com/@nanobyte-dev

If you like laid back walking videos then ABitOfAWander

No wonder Americans say you need a car to go around. Looking at the videos you can get a sense of vastness and how lonely/deserted the place is.
