What are some quality YouTube channels that you recommend?
Kind of tired watching trash from YT.
Edit: Thanks for all the replies. It’s good to see that there are still gems in YouTube.

revlayle, LazerPig on YouTube
burgersc12, (edited ) Dr. Becky - really informative and interesting astronomy news and info
Michael Reeves - Hilariously ridiculous projects usually involving code and technology of some kind
Kyle Hill - Love his Half-Life Histories series, even if he is a bit clickbait
MelonTheMan, I really like Potholer54 - he doesn’t do any ads so youtube NEVER promotes his videos. He will read, cite, link all his sources and more importantly, will respond to misrepresentations of science in the media. He will usually explain the science behind the articles he sources and explain why the media gets it wrong.
I’ve also found Skip Intro is really good regarding copaganda. He has some great videos on a lot of the media I was exposed to growing up and its good to reexamine it with a more modern take. He also dunks on paw patrols which is fucking terrible.
Horsey, History Matters is absolutely hilarious if you like world history and British humor.

Veritasium
massive_bereavement, (edited ) Veritasium tends to push stuff that's relatively promotion - based. Not so different to kurzgesagt.
I've seen a couple of rebuttals from his videos that were sobering.
EDIT: That said he's a great communicator and his black hole video helped me a lot trying to make sense of it.
enragedchowder, Do you happen to have a link to any of the rebuttals? I watch him a lot so I’m curious.
massive_bereavement, This is one I found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CM0aohBfUTc, they go a bit with the Veritasium guy in the comments.
A similar thing also happened before to CGP Grey with Adam Something (https://youtu.be/oafm733nI6U), though I would argue that I didn't think CGP Grey had any secret agenda, it was just overreaching.
That said, even the people I mention here they are also biassed in their own ways or they tend to now and then throw a foul ball.
I simply felt that both Veritasium and Kurgesagt are very good at convincing of certain opinions shared with their promoters.
Blackout, The ISHITANI FURNITURE channel is a goldmine of craftsman info. One day I will make my own bed like his.
uniqueid198x, (edited ) Nick Zentner (@GeologyNick) has been delivering college level lectures and seminars in geology for years. He has several lecture series ranging from 101 level, senior College level, to breaking research. He also has many shorts and onsite presentations.
Noraly (@ItchyBoots) has been traveling around the world via motorcycle for 6 or so years. She’s currently traversing western Africa, and has hundreds of hours of backlog. She has previously traveled from India to the Netherlands, and then from Argentina to Alaska (with a break for COVID).
wimbo,
Blackout, LOL this guy has a mission and its to never turn left or right :D
HootinNHollerin, Timeline - remember when history Channel was awesome? It was all timeline documentaries
Odyssey - ancient history documentaries
Steve Mould - engineering and how things work
Crux - news (mostly concerning the war in Ukraine) that is subtitles w music background
drmoose, @yousuckatcooking - entertaining cooking and legit recipes!
@fortnine - amazing quality motorbike channel. Even if you don’t ride its very educational and entertaining.
Blackout, Little Chinese Everywhere
I've traveled in China a lot and she goes to places I've never had the opportunity to, asks so many well thought out questions to the locals, and does an excellent job editing it together. Great channel if you like travel stuffThe B1M
Incredible channel about construction and architecture. Because they cover worldwide you get a big of regional information. The videos are high quality with tons of business details you would have to pay for premium subscriptions to get before.Maigomika
New channel about a couple who moved to a very rural part of Japan and their challenges. It isnt stuffed with info, they let the environment lead the pace and fill in little details here and there. Beautiful imagery with a bit of home cam style that really brings the viewer into their world.
