Do you guys have any recommendations for me to switch to? I already subscribed to Gamers Nexus, Hardware Unboxed and JayzTwoCents.

Thanks in advance :)

Ah I would’ve gotten away with it if it weren’t for you meddling ads.

Michael Reeves is the special kind of wacky where I’d equally believe “he just paid for a brand new orphanage” and “he just accidentally burned down the orphanage”. Love it

I’d also suggest adding Colin Furze and Hacksmith to the “wacky builds” creators. The Secret Santa things between them and a few other creator channels are a great way to find even more.

Can you comment on Louis Rossman ? First time I’ve heard someone say that. I’m curious to know if people really think that of him.

I do get the sense from being a bit of a long time viewer that he’s a bit up his own ass, especially as his channel has moved more towards a talking head style, but he gives me the same vibes as a single issue voter concerned only with right to repair. But when called out he seems to take criticism much better than most (especially LTT) and is willing to put his money where his mouth is. However, I only semi-regularly watch his videos so ymmv

I also rarely watch his videos as they tend to be a lot of angry rambling, but his takes on right to repair stuff as well as right to privacy are 10/10

TheLinuxExperiment does really nice video about tech news, better than TechLinked in every ways.

+1 for TheLinuxExperiment, most other linux channels have a paranoid vibe to them but this guy’s cool

Jayz2Cents is awful. Please don’t watch that stuff. They’re so long winded and lacking in… actual information. Add Digital Foundry, Hardware Canucks.

So a good replacement for LLT then? /s. But seriously, that’s not what his channel is about.

Hostile work environment stuff aside, I prefer LTTs content to J2C, even with the random factual errors.

Jayz2Cents used to be good, but man the quality really has fallen

I stopped watching Jay when… I think it was the 2080ti came out for over 1000 dollars? and he basically told people to stop complaining and just buy it.

My two absolute favourites right now

Bringus Studios - this is pretty close to classic LTT episodes (he did “I bought a SEGA PC?!?!?!!” before Linus did) and often involves trying to upgrade hardware that wasn’t designed to be upgraded or installing software on systems not meant for it (turning a PS4 into a steam deck for example) all with a delightful layer of jank to it So kinda like the videos with Jake

A little more different but equally brilliant channel is

MattKC - his most popular video is him trying to get a game to fit into a qr code (brilliant) but also extends to him buying and fixing a Wii he bought for 1$ in Japan or trying to build the fastest Windows 98 compatible PC and modding old consoles So kinda like the videos with Alex
