Isn't thoughty2 an insane right winger?
I googled it and apparently there's been some commotion about him and his views. Especially about a video about why people are so easily offended, one I haven't seen myself. I'm only on YouTube and Lemmy, I completely missed everything else on other platforms.
The videos I've seen had no political content so I never noticed anything, but it's good to know as it might have influence on the information and nuance he provides. So thank you for pointing out his bias.
I've lost trust in veritasium. I don't remember the specifics right now but every video he makes I have to take with caution
In the beginning it was very nice, but somehow the guy became repulsive somehow. I used to watch every video but lately I skip many. But since the older videos were interesting, I added it to the list. I also used to like Mark Rober but his videos I really dislike for a while now. It's so over the top "look at me, I'm an engineer, I'm going to do extreme shit and be super popular for kids" instead of "I'm going to teach you something super interesting".

Me: “Sam O… haha cute name. I’ve never heard of it. I’ll see if they have a YT channel. Oh they do! What?! I’m already subscribed??!”
I wish YT actually respected subscriptions. Here I am subscribed to someone and I’ve so thoroughly forgotten it that their name doesn’t even ring a bell.

University course lectures are still the best and you can find tons of them in YouTube in their entirety.

My problem with threads like this is that I only have 24 hours a day, and I've accumulated a critical mass of content creators to the point where I cannot keep up.
Which of these awesome people do I ignore?! What information do I leave behind!? How am I supposed to get anything useful done with my life?!?
Also, check out Chris Boden if you want to see something cool!

History Matters is my personal favorite
Sam O'Nella, the most chaotic of the four no doubt
I love threads like this where we collectively come together and share our YouTube subs and we all grow stronger every time we find a new one to add to our list
that's just dipping your toes in the shore of the bast ocean that is yt educational content.
