Stuff like HAWP, 5sf, asdfmovie, Nathan barnatt, etc.

No overblown people acting fake and sensationalist (that try so hard to be funny when they aren't) no ads. Just fun.

Does this even exist ? Even howtobasic has went to ads...which is fine. But it spoils it for me.

Ashens - Reviews random tat on his brown sofa. A lot of vintage toys and random junk from discount stores.

Dankpods - Headphones, mp3 players, and other amusing electronic junk. Also has the channel GarbageTime where he restored old crappy cars and does crazy things like replacing the oil in a car with Nutella.

TheMightyJingles - Old retired Royal Navy vet. Mostly games but always has interesting stories and history to share.

Techmoan, LGR, BigCliveDotCom - Three tech reviewers in different areas. First is cool gadgets and old music players. Second is vintage computers and games. Third is practical devices and electronic components with full on circuit board schematic dissections.

Ahoy - Top quality mini documentaries about recent and old games, historic weapons, and cultural tidbits

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.

8) No Bots.

Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.
