A couple of atheism/philosophy channels that helped me focus on the positive aspects of my secular worldview, instead of merely being not theistic:
Made major improvements to my home cooking routine:
- Adam Ragusea. His podcast, which he stopped doing this year, is also worth a listen.
- Rainbow Plant Life. Vegan.
- Derek Sarno. Also vegan.
Culture & current events:
- Joan Westenberg. She just started a YouTube channel a couple days ago, but I’ve been subscribing to her newsletter for a few months and it’s great. Give her a follow on Mastodon, too: https://mastodon.social/@Daojoan
- Maggie Mae Fish Only just found this one, but seems well thought-out.
- Tara Mooknee Same here.
Some of my favorites: - Microwave Society (Film Reviews/General Comedic Commentary) - Lackadaisy (Imagine Prohibition but cats) - The Click (Reading reddit posts, mostly when I draw) - LGR (Old tech mostly with some random modern stuff mixed in) - Douglas (They do voxel engine devlogs, and I am impressed with their work) - Bringus Studios (They mostly modify various electronics)
Most of mine are videogame or car related, but here’s a few from across the spectrum of things I watch:
Aliensrock: Interesting streamer/YouTuber who primarily plays puzzle games and provides entertaining commentary.
ScrapMan: Plays lots of building/engineering games (mostly Scrap Mechanic and Trailmakers). Lots of silly multiplayer competitions and “engineering challenges”.
ItsJabo: Funny guy Streamer that plays Bethesda games with silly challenge runs. Also brings a bit of the chaotic energy.
Joov: same as above, but a bit more focused on telling a story throughout the challenge runs.
Aging Wheels: Eccentric guy that makes videos about eccentric cars. He’s quite funny and passionate which makes for good videos.
Superfast Matt: Engineer who makes ridiculous project cars that are good enough ™️. He’s made a land speed car, and recently an Off-road Dodge Viper.
Allen Pan: Inventor that makes a bunch of fun and silly projects sometimes based on stuff from TV shows and movies.
Incognito Mode: Especially the “In the Field” series. Basically an animated podcast where the Internet Historian and a guest talk about a variety of topics and come up with ridiculous scenarios.
Tasting History: Max Miller makes cool recipes from history whilst also giving a history lesson on the meal and its significance.
I love the humor of superfast matt :D
Kris Harbour Natural Building - Guy building a homestead in rural Wales. He does some cool hydropower stuff. Built his own house and workshop. He’s currently building a timber framed barn of his own design for his equipment and the animals he raises using lumber he milled on a band saw mill that he also built (and I think also designed). This stuff is all documented on his channel. Dude seems really chill and down-to-earth.
Quiet Nerd - cool projects all DIY
Camping with Steve - stealth camping wholesomeness
Londoneats - food delivery in London, weirdly fascinating
Red Letter Media! <3
(Yo, cake day lol)
The Action Lab easily my favourite
Bill McClintock Uri Tuchman Wristwatch revival Foureyes furniture BigClive dotcom
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!
Very well put, he makes an effort of bringing you along, which is a nice thing for a younger audience. I never stopped liking his relaxed style, though. His videos are one of those things I always reserve some time to enjoy.
I guess a lot of people on Lemmy indirectly know Tantacrul, he’s the product manager for Audacity and head of design for MuseScore.
Yeah, I suppose. His channel has less than 500k subs, though, so I always like to recommend it :P
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.
True, it’s been much more slow paced. Thought it was because the videos took much more time to make, wasn’t aware he was quite active on Patreon.
The Try Channel. Super funny Irish individuals trying food & alcohol. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCabq3No3wXbs6Ut-Pux6SzA/videos Kirsten Dirksen. She is a filmmaker that has many videos on tiny homes, micro apartments, sustainable gardening and so much more. She travels the world to film. https://www.youtube.com/user/kirstendirksen/videos
I love that most of the people from the original channel (I think it was Facts.) came back to the Try channel.
I love these people, I watch every video even if I hate the subject of it because sometimes it goes off the rails with humor.
