I might be playing Devil's Advocate here, but Psivewri.
I started watching him years ago for his tech videos, usually restoring mundane computers, and I still enjoy that content.
However, he started getting into automotive, and I'm glad that he's stretching out into other areas. It's clear he's still learning and probably on my level of mechanics (backyardie who can watch videos and read a workshop manual), but my issue is how he presents the videos like he knows what he's doing, almost like a tutorial - giving random tips throughout.
His Dad assists him with the work he does on cars (like myself) and in that sense, I'd rather hear tips from the Dad than him because I'd have more confidence he knows what he's talking about.
Otherwise maybe PhoenixSC? I started watching him when he was uploading redstone contraptions to r/Minecraft and he had 4K subscribers. His older, experimental videos were always interesting, and his work on adventure maps like PokeCA was amazing to watch.
Today, most of his videos boil down to the following:
I'm glad that he's grown to be more confident in himself and in general, become more entertaining when he talks, but I feel he's gone too much into the mainstream over the last few years rather than keeping to his lane.
