      I have been using youtube for many years and have never subscribed to anything. I always think they will just overload my email. But every youtuber asks for it and am still like nah. Is it worth it?

        Subscribing to a YouTube channel doesn’t involve your email, unless they have a newsletter, but that’s voluntary.

        Subbing to a tuber just means their channel is in your “subscriptions” list, and if you enable notifications, you’ll know when they upload.

    Internet Today is a great news channel. Based guys too.

    It’s like having 2 friends to watch the end of the world with.

          It’s not bad. The biggest downside is just that it isn’t that big so I’ve only found a couple channels on there that I’m interested in so far. I decided to give it a shot because I really hate ads, so even just having a couple channels I liked (like neo and Mustard) ad-free was worth giving it a shot. I used a creator link to sign up at a discount which also made the price a more palatable $30 for a year: https://nebula.tv/neo

          I assume you can replace the last part of that URL with a different channel’s slug to support that channel

    Stuff Made Here - blows my mind with each new video. I can’t even imagine being able to dream up his creations let alone design and create them.

    Technology Connections - you didn’t know you were going to love learning about dishwashers and other appliances, but you are.

    Foureyes Furniture - interesting custom furniture design and build sequences with very good editing and voiceover.

    Marling Baits - Custom fishing lures that vary from lifelike (using real fish skin) to absurd (a lightsaber) to ultra absurd (a block of wood).

    Project Farm - head to head comparisons of common tools or other household projects. Very no nonsense and a ton of information packed in quick.

    Inheritance Machining - a man documenting rediscovering his passion for machining after inheriting his grandfather’s machine shop. Excellent narrative scriptwriting, recurring video elements, buttery smooth voiceover, and oddly satisfying machining footage.

      If you enjoy a good voiceover, check out Beau Miles and Bobby Fingers. Beau is all about his adventure philosophy and Bobby doesn’t need an introduction. There’s just no way to discribe his videos, highly recommended.

      Not just that but really great comedic writing and delivery. I love the just right amount of sarcasm and pedantry. Not too much to be annoying, just enough to be hilarious.

    Many channels I watch have already been mentioned, but one comes to mind that hasn’t been: if you like Stuff Made Here and NileRed, you’ll love The Thought Emporium. Dude is a mad scientist, for real. His current long term project is trying to make a neural net that can play DOOM… except he means real neurons. Biological neurons grown in his self built lab, sourced from rats.

    I’m amazed none of these have been mentioned yet. Here are some of my faves

    Explaining stuff that’s happening

    • Real Life Lore (I’m almost signing for Nebula because of him, gorgeous map graphics)
    • Cold Fusion
    • Wendover

    History stuff

    • Fall of Civilizations - Hands down the best documentary-like content I know of. Takes forever for new stuff to show up (because research), but it’s so fucking worth it!
    • Study of Antiquity and the Middle Ages
    • Kings and Generals (the narrator butchers every non-anglo name, it really grinds my gears)
    • Heroes and Legends - The long form, documentary-level videos are amazing. Watch the ones on Gertrude Bell and Voltaire

    Gamurrs

    • Basement Brothers - Almost monotone narration, but possibly the only channel in english that plays and shows several details of old Japan exclusive PC games (PC88 and PC98 mostly)
    • Russian Badger - There’s a very high chance you’ve seen some of the memes straight out of his videos. Start with “Heavy flamer heresy” if you’ve never seen any.

    A lot of the channels I like have already been listed (more than once) by others, so I will just mention my top current favorites and few that haven’t been mentioned.

    • SuperfastMatt -He’s a former Tesla engineer that hobby builds custom vehicles like an offroad Dodge Viper and a land-speed car
    • HyperspacePirate -he’s a guy building his own diy cryocooler while doing all sorts of at-home refrigeration refinement utilizing off the shelf materials.
    • Max Miller -He’s an educational cook that seems to speak to the former Alton Brown crowd.
    • ThisOldTony -He’s a pair of machinist hands 🙌 that shows people the fundamentals of how to work with metal while also being entertaining
    • Extractions&Ire -He’s a mad chemist from the southern hemisphere
    • The Thought Emporium -He’s an amateur mad bio-engineer who among other things is working to create an array of rat neurons that he can teach to play Doom

    Nilered is a mad chemist from the northern hemisphere that also barely makes content anymore so I can’t list him

    I also love most of the content creators that are apart of Nebula.
