Inspired by this post but the other way around. Which channels (any subject) do you think have stayed true to their beginnings and are still worth watching today?

My pick would be Gamers Nexus.

Some ones I haven't seen yet:

  • Camping with Steve (relaxed Canadian camping with plenty of dry humour, usually some wild stealth camping adventures)
  • Budget-Builds Official (tries out random ass computer hardware and finds its limits)
  • dosdude1 (infamous for crazy Mac upgrades that require resoldering BGA chips and chip programming)
  • EthosLab (already saw Xisumavoid mentioned, Etho is still happily making mature Minecraft videos)
  • Flexiny (ASMR-like videos of mechanics fixing old cars to run again)
  • FlyTech Videos (Windows experiments and deep dives into how Win32 and NT do things)
  • GIFGAS (usual accomplice with shiey in train surfing, although I enjoy GIFGAS' edits more than shiey)
    • Side note: His videos are taken down regularly so you have to be quick to download them before they disappear
  • Hugh Jeffreys (Australian right to repair advocate, usually repairs smartphones but has dabbled into more vintage items recently)
  • Janus Cycle (2000s deep retrospectives into technology)
  • Plainly Difficult (British industrial accident examinations with wonderfully shoddy graphics)
  • polymatt (absolute 3D modelling wizard who takes on restoring vintage tech to beyond brand new with incredible attention to detail, and very engaging edits)
  • Seytonic (cyber security news roundup weekly)
  • This Does Not Compute (retro computer repairs and retrospectives)
  • Usagi Electric (extremely vintage computer repairs, going right back to vacuum tubes to 1980s minicomputers)

Edit: fixed formatting error
