Curious Droid - lots of sci fi, technology content.
WaterlineStories - all sorts of nautical/diving disasters narrated by a South African chap with a lot of experience.
Qxir - Irish guy with a lot of weird stories told in stick figure form.
Plainly Difficult - a lot of disasters frequently nuclear.
Nile Red is still fun - and a nice dude. Chemistry
Vince Vintage is hilarious, great editing (like internet historian but not a jerk)
Also my homeboy Video Game Dunkey.
Dreading is good(sort of successor to JCS), very sober and tasteful host discussing true crime.
Qxir?
I found too many of their videos have unsubstantiated claims, and illogical/wrong conclusions drawn from inaccurate or incomplete information.
While they may have high production value at a glance, the quality of the information itself is about as good as any other social media thread.
It's really disappointing to me cuz I would love their videos but I just can't keep watching them with such inaccuracies...
Fair enough. I really enjoy his delivery. He's not perhaps the most researched or precise YouTuber but I like the subjects he covered.
