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.

"The Infographics Show" kind of my favorite.

Also recently seen video "Tourism in Afganistan" recorded less than year ago. Interesting content I would say.

SUV RVing: https://www.youtube.com/@SUVRVing

An extremely down to earth travel channel about a guy who mostly just drives around exploring the American West and sleeping in his car.

He finds all kinds of hidden gems you have never heard of and he researches and tells you a lot of interesting details about the areas he visits. But the videos are very chill and he talks about some of the more mundane details of his trip that would be cut from most channels videos.

It is extremely relaxing to watch, really feels like you are hanging out and going on a road trip with your buddy.

Bushbeeman - In the bush, finding bees, the man.

Legit Street Cars, Primitive Technology, Ghost Town Living, Donut (their older stuff is better than newer), Colin Furze (older stuff also better than new, but newer stuff is bigger, more expensive projects as his channel has grown), Blackmail Studio and Wristwatch Revival. Those are the YT channels I'm constantly watching (along with Critical Role, but excluded due to length of episodes).

Edit: Oh and SpyroPyro does some awesome stuff with Lasers.

Andrew camerata (crazy construction projects and equipment)

Quality is realllllly subjective. What are your interests?

[–] Thorny_Thicket@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

Advoko Makes is my favourite. Russian guy building stuff in the woods. Posts new videos rarely but the quality is top notch

[–] Horsey@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

History Matters is absolutely hilarious if you like world history and British humor.
