I might be in a niche. Here's my fav, Religion for Breakfast, Let's Talk Religion, Esoterica, Al-Muqaddimah, Tablets and Temples, Useful Charts. Not religious but I like Religious Studies because it's overlaps to history.
In addition, the Crash Course series to Religious Studies by PBS is also very good.
Also few history channel, Dan Davis History, A Historian's Craft, Kings and Generals
the rise of LLM companies scraping internet is also, I noticed, the moment YouTube is going harsher against adblockers or 3rd party viewer.
Piped or Invidious instances that I used to use are no longer works, did so may other instances. NewPipe have been broken more frequently. youtube-dl or yt-dlp sometimes cannot fetch higher resolution video. and so sometimes the main youtube side is broken on Firefox with ublock origin.
Not just youtube but also z-library, and especially sci-hub & libgen also have been harder to use sometimes.

Oh very true, I forgot about it. It's definitely very related to philosophy & mythology a lot. I personally never been so interested with that aspect hence I forgot. But it does pique my interest quite often enough when watching such videos. I often noticed even much later religious communities developed their philosophy based on more ancient philosophy foundation, which neoplatonism is one of such idea that I hear a lot. And so about how a lot of abrahamic religion are adopting/build their system based on or against various ancient mesopotamian myths, culture, and systems.
But I personally have been more interested to the history & evolvement aspect of things, like how the Bible differs in various times in different locations. How early Christian & Muslim had their sort of "figuring out" eras during their early times respectively. Or how does Judaism evolved from Canaanite theology, from a pantheon to henotheism, to eventually become monotheism.
This also overlaps to linguistic as well sometimes, used for example to describe various Indo-European gods appear in various culture are related linguistically. Although, I don't really follow any linguistic channels since they really are (well, obviously) about linguistic, not religious studies or history focused.
