I'm sure I could think of more if I thought for a bit. I should mention that I don't usually log in to YouTube. I keep my subscribed-to list in NewPipe on my phone. But I also do a fair amount of just searching by topic or happening across YouTube content on Lemmy or Hackaday.
Oh awesome breakdown thank you! We have quite a few in common actually, looking forward to checking the others out! It’s funny, Any Austin was actually the first person that came to my mind. I feel like anything he talks about he just breathes so much life into the subject
It's wild to meet Any Austin fans in the wild. I was watching his stuff and supporting him on Patreon when he was really obscure. Now that he's really popular, it's a whole different thing.
Well hey thanks for helping him get off the ground! I forget which, but one of his “unremarkable places” videos went viral and that’s how I first got on board
Subscribing to Nebula will be a good start. Quite a few of the channels you mentioned are there already and more keep getting added.
Any Austin is great
Was that speed runner historian the guy who had a massive falling out recently? I only heard about it in passing.
Point Crow or Summoning Salt? Either way, I hadn't heard anything.
I do know Point Crow used to do a lot of content of games like Breath of the Wild with mods that would do things like multiplayer mode or "the floor is lava". And Nintendo recently got YouTube to mass delete lots of modded Nintendo game content. (I don't think mods of Nintendo games are even illegal, but Nintendo is known for calling the perfectly legal illegal.) And Point Crow's channel was pretty hard hit because that made up a lot of his content.
Man. Maybe I should consider boycotting YouTube. Heh.
Edit: Oh. Speedrunner historian guy. You're asking about Summoning Salt. I can't read. Yeah, I don't know anything, but I'll look into it. You're not thinking of Karl Jobst, are you? He was sued by Billy Mitchell, but Mitchell is 100% provably in the wrong. And a liar. And a scammer. And a cheating cheater who cheats. (If you aren't familiar with Mitchell, I recommend starting with the documentary "King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters".) Also, unless you've heard something I haven't, I would recommend Jobst's channel. It's mostly about cheaters in e-sports and speedrunning.
