Seeing the other post here about YouTuber that went downhill and seeing content creators I am familiar with makes me sad. But how about those that still makes great, high quality content?

Makers

...more in Honytawk's comment below

Science + Technology

  • Applied Science - In depth videos about random science-y things this dude finds interesting. No clickbait, just an excited dude talking about a project he tried.

  • Atomic Frontier - A lot like Tom Scott. He's also a rare case where the video is more interesting than the title/thumbnail. Generally focused on science-y topics + has shockingly high production value considering the dude seems to be an overworked college student.

  • NileRed/NileBlue - Crazy in depth chemistry videos. Personally find NileBlue more entertaining as he tends to explore things he's not that great at.

  • Practical Engineering - Explanations of various civil engineering concepts.

Your makers can be padded out a bit more.

  • I did a thing - dry humor Australian who walks barefoot and wears an apron.

  • Michael Reeves - chaotic coding goblin that makes robots

  • TheBackyardScientist - Floridaman using his backyard to explode stuff

  • Mark Rober - Nasa engineer explaining science to kids with great editing

  • William Osman - Collaboration expert, you will see him in all the other channels mentioned above.

Thanks for the list, I'm sure others will appreciate it!

I'm actually subscribed to almost all of those channels lmao. I skipped several because I'm being picky, and I mean picky. You probably won't agree with a lot of my decisions. Here's what I mean...

  • I did a thing - forgot about him I'll add him to the list
  • Micheal Reeves - Last real video was a year ago
  • Backyard scientist - Unsubscribed a while ago due to clickbait. From a quick glance his videos seem fine now though.
  • Mark Rober - Video quality has been going downhill. More and more clickbait, and videos seem to spend a lot more time than necessary on "look at our happy family fun time we're having."
  • William Osman - I like him just not enough to put him on the list

I agree. There are not many YouTubers making and people enjoying the absolute tiny niche content I enjoy.

With your high standards you may like Huygens Optics an old optics engineer who does videos about light simply because he enjoys making them. But the content is niche.
