Seeing the other post here about YouTuber that went downhill and seeing content creators I am familiar with makes me sad. But how about those that still makes great, high quality content?

Tom Scott is a beacon of YouTube quality.

He never had a phase where all of his videos were 10:00 for the algorithm, he never jumps on topical shit for clicks, he just talks about genuinely interesting shit, and has gotten to do so on a higher and higher budget.

He has diversified, and has other channels that interface with other YouTubers in gameshow and stuff. But it's all still legit content.

Example 1

Example 2

Example 3

And a deep cut from 9 years ago. Same kind of content. Slightly lower quality but... Guys been doing this kind of "hey I think this is neat let me tell you about it" for a decade, without becoming a dingbat.

You get the idea.

Unfortunately not for much longer, though

I fell in love with him after the execution of the Dasani video. Walking backward ten minute single take, amazing: https://youtu.be/wD79NZroV88

Video icon has giant red text saying "NOBODY SURVIVES". Open with Tom Scott standing at a gate to the Chernobyl exclusion zone

"Today I'm here to talk to you about something dark, something that has produced so much pain, something that decays life itself. Me standing in Chernobyl actually has nothing to do with it, because pulls up a laptop showing a game I'm referring to League of Legends"
