my youtube algorithm kinda sucks rn, recommend me some

I recommend turning the algorithm off and only watching what Lemmy tells you to.
Good idea! Your options are between linux kernel mailing list drama or linux Wayland issue tracker drama.

Got a few science and tech channels;
Tech Ingredients - in depth breakdowns of semi advanced technology from the perspective of a guy that can explain every step, how to build it yourself it and how to modify it to be better, may be a lecturer or just a very knowledgeable engineer.
(most recent vid was building an underground heatsink to turn an inefficient window aircon unit into an absolute beast of a cooler, channel has also made DIY Graphene and ultra reflective paint for passively cooling buildings)AvE - 'Good old uncle bumblefuck' a guy that takes apart tools and goes through the good the bad and the ugly. Occasionally posts machining videos, often amusing breakdowns of cheap tools.
Bigclivedotcom - Scotsman that buys ebay electronics and shows the good the bad and the ugly of how they're made/what will kill you if it gains a fault.
Acorn to Arabella;
A climber with access to a few generations old woodland, hand builds a boat from a 1920s design, learns to sail and sets off on an adventure (currently out sailing, lots of very satisfying build videos such as melting lead over a bonfire and pouring a multi-tonne keel.Still tech-y but more lighthearted;
Nilered - Modern day equivalent of a mad scientist, has made alcohol from toiler paper, grape soda out of nitrile gloves and cherry soda out of tolulene.William Osman - the most ADHD of adult neurodivergents, currently trying to make a farm in his back garden (where the ground is 90% sand)
He runs Open Sauce, which is a technology and creator convention. Also wrote a tv show called Scare the CoyoteStyroPyro - another mad scientist but with lasers this time, builder of the macrowave - a microwave so overpowered it can melt tungsten and make plasma out of almost anything instantly. Sometimes goes storm chasing.

Any Austin is pretty great, he talks about videogames but more like checking the unemployment levels in skyrim or following powerlines in GTA to see if the infrastructure makes sense
VideoGameDunkey is a certified classic
MiniMinuteMan does some cool paleontology videos, as well as some good conspiracy debunking
Explosions&Fire is a chaotic Australian chemistry channel (along with the sister channel Extractions&Ire).
Rybonator makes custom dice from resin and is a great choice for DnD fans and dice goblins
Natural Habitat Shorts is a hilarious animation channel that focuses on real animal facts
+1 for Miniminuteman and Explosions/Extractions

The main channel I'm not seeing here already is plainly difficult productions. They do industrial disaster videos, as well as dam collapses, building collapses, and radiological disasters.

Huygens Optics, some old Dutch (I think) guy who shows how to make optics (like, for telescopes and stuff) and talks about physics stuff. And he sometimes randomly throws in silly (and musically competent) songs and dancing videos. Doesn't do any sponsor stuff at all, just a cool, chill channel talking about physics and grinding glass and such.
I'm not even remotely in that field, I'm just some linux idiot who likes learning random stuff. And his videos are so damn good, technically very deep but not at all inaccessible, somehow
