Truly delightful

I stopped watching kurzgesagt after their copium video on global warming where we all hold hands and sing and magically reverse it.
Here's an existential threat to humanity, and the various ways that it's worse than you think. But don't worry! Capitalism will save the day by inventing solutions to our problems which won't necessitate any restructuring of our society or economy!
Thanks as always to our billionaire

Didn't he also make a video at some point heavily implying he believes in creationism?
The end of ever video includes the name of a bible verse, Destin is not exactly hiding the fact that he's christian lol

That's fair.
But it's not mainly his views that put me of (just kinda) it's the paid and unpaid sponsorships with the military. It's so obviously a recruitment strategy that it's painful to watch.
I don't live in the USA either.
He lives in Huntsville, Alabama. 95% of his neighbors are defense contractors. It isn't sponsorships, it's "this guy lives 40 feet away from me and does something interesting for a living"

Sam O'Nella, the most chaotic of the four no doubt

University course lectures are still the best and you can find tons of them in YouTube in their entirety.
Anything by Robert Sapolsky ftw! Really enjoy his delivery style.

Shout out to PBS Space Time
For physics enthusiasts, I'd also suggest "floatheadphysics" for his depictions and sometimes cathartic presentation style. I love how he broke down special relativity in an easily understood way.
Then I've also really been enjoying "For The Love of Physics" for his style of showing some of the math. His style is more of a classroom presentation, but in a way that reminds me of my most effective professors that made their lessons as easy to consume as mac and cheese.
I'm inclined to hit some online courses someday, too, but, for now, these have been great for conceptual stuff and my curiosity vs. time balance.

The description in multiple of the videos advertises navy or airforce recruitment.
And in the non paid videos, why do you think he was given access, time, and permission to post the videos?
For recruitment obviously. -

I miss Mike Rugnetta's PBS Idea Channel so much, and it absolutely would have belonged on this list, imo.

I'd add 3blue1brown (3b1b) to that mix! Also xkcd's What If, Minute Physics, and maybe VSauce

For recruitment obviously.Not exactly a new tactic. Same thing for Top Gun and probably a bunch of other movies. Part recruitment, part public relations to improve their image.
But the military does have some neat tech that most people won't ever see. Like his series in the submarine, there was a lot of really cool.

Absolutely and that puts me off. Especially when they push out multiple ads across multiple youtubers at roughly the same time, like they did at one time with smartereveryday

I wasn't gone on their video on the cruelty of the slaughter industrial complex where they bent over backwards to avoid suggesting veganism as the obvious solution.

There's a pretty good astronomy channel called SEA

Isn’t that what the "subscriptions" tab is for?
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Neither the main tab nor subscriptions really gives me what I want. The main tab is good - I do discover good things there. I’m not one of those people who says “just give me my subscriptions in chronological order.” Because that actually sucks, and that’s kinda what you get on the subscription tab.
I want a smart algorithm, I just want it to pay more respect to my subscriptions and show more of them more often. “Home” gives you some but not enough.

Doesn’t he also have a video that’s throating the idea of the British monarchy cuz the tourism?
I mean as far as Americans go he's about as good as you're gonna get

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Not possible afaik. Your request is a bit specific.
I know YT music has something like that where you can tweak mixes to listen more diverse things or mainly what you already know, but yea it might be cool to have that as well on YT.
Their algorithm is still super good
