    Echoing some other suggestions surely, but here are a few that I regularly come back to:

    GAMING:

    • CallMeKevin (really funny, wholesome Irish guy known for playing games kinda hilariously incorrectly )

    • GameGrumps (two best friends playing games and riffing. Usually very funny and wildly inappropriate. Feels like gaming with high school buddies)

    • Outside Xbox/Outside Xtra (small team of British friends with lots of quirky, easily digestible “7 things” lists over the years)

    • Dungeon Dudes (pretty broad and approachable dives into all things D&D)

    • Smooth McGroove (older channel with many delightful a cappella renditions of video game songs)

    COOKING:

    • Babish Culinary Universe (super approachable, funny, and well-edited cooking tutorials with fun themes and lots of room to be wrong)

    • How to Cook That (Ann Reardon is a super knowledgeable, friendly, crazy talented baker, and she does a lot of good work to address and debunk dangerous & stupid trends on social media)

    • Joshua Weissman (similar vibes to Babish, but a little more overtly comedic. Does great recreations of fast food classics)

    SCIENCE & TECH:

    • Technology Connections (deep dives that make mundane things in our lives seem super fascinating)

    • OzTalksHw (very wholesome, budget-friendly PC builds with an emphasis on self care.)

    • ZeFrank (excellent, accurate, and very funny short nature documentaries)

    • NetworkChuck (friendly, well-edited tutorials on lots of IT-related things)

    ENTERTAINMENT AND OTHER/MISC:

    • Kitboga (fairly wholesome considering the content area. He exposes and confronts phone scammers with hilarious made up character voices and fake websites & accounts, and he teaches people what to look out for in the process. Lots of swearing and shouting from scammers that he regularly pisses off by wasting their time and getting their accounts closed)

    • Watcher (Ryan and Shane do a lot of different interesting things, and their banter and chemistry are infinitely watchable. Puppet History is a particular favorite)

    • Digging the Greats (really cool deep dives into the makings, origins, and fun facts about all things hip hop)

    I don’t know these were posted or not but here is my suggestions which every youtube watching person probably already heard about most of them:

    Not Just Bikes: Channel about Urban Planing-Living and how destructive the cars are.

    History Matters: Short animated videos about historical events, narrated with humor.

    my mechanics: Best and most detailed restorations ever.

    NileRed - NileBlue: All about experimenting with chemical reactions.

    Oversimplified: Like the name, oversimplified narrations of historical events but in a long form with animated depictions and humor of course.

    Stefan Milo: Really informative research videos of archeology.

    The Linux Experiment: Like the name suggests it’s all about Linux.

    Bad Lip Reading: It’s in the name.

    ChrisFix: Best car repair channel out there.

    DIY Perks: DIY videos but heavy on the entertainment side rather than the doable diys.

    Ethan Chlebowski: Trying to understand cooking from the perspective of homecooks.

    Alex (the French Guy Cooking): Reverse engineering the recipes.

    Brick Experiment Channel: Building Lego machines.

    These all are high quality channels imo. There are a lot more but I am kinda lazy for now.

    This is a csv file of really high quality channels that you can directly use in Piped: Proton Drive Link to csv file

      RedLetterMedia has been my favorite channel for years now. They’re pretty big outside of the internet too, as I’ve worked with a couple fellow fans. The Mr Plinkett Star Wars Prequel reviews put em on the map, like what… a decade ago?

    I’m not doing links because I’m lazy, but I watch a lot of YouTube and these are my favorites:

    Ordinary Things - funny smarmy British dude explains ordinary things. Once a month or so, very high effort stuff.

    That Chapter - funny sarcastic Irish guy explains true crime things. Twice a week on a good week. Also high effort research

    Internet Comment Etiquette - this is not for you. Don’t watch it. You’ve been warned.

    LGR - the best legacy youtuber talks about the best legacy tech.

    Patrick Willems - funny American guy explains movie stuff.

    The Crafsman Steady Craftin - funny puppet man does crafts. This is the most high effort channel on YouTube.

        Love that channel! I bought some of his prints and 2 of his shirts from his shop. Pretty affordable vs many other YouTube artists!
