Title essentially. Youtube’s algorithm is hot garbage, so I can’t search for anything anymore without a ton of AI slop and rage bait. So, who do you go to for actual good long form videos? Exposes, scandals, behind the scenes, documentaries, film, travel, transit, who do you recommend I follow?

    Hoog, fern, Thinker and Moon do rather similar styles of documentary content.

    rSlash and Mainly Fact are the best “Reddit stories” channels that actually provide their own commentary rather than reading out Reddit posts verbatim with text-to-speech tools, or passing off blatantly fake AI slop hallucinated by ChatGPT as genuine.

    Ahoy mainly does documentaries about weapons and how they’re depicted in video games, but he’s also done some retro gaming stuff too.

    Rav is one of the few League of Legends content creators I actually like. He doesn’t just lazily regurgitate stream VODs as video guides with clickbaity thumbnails like a lot of creators do. Yes, he uses text-to-speech commentary to narrate his games but his scripts are actually fucking hilarious.
