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.
I’ve been watching Yahtzee Croshaw for ~5 years now, but he’s been around for more like 15. He did change channels, but the style of videos he made stayed the same, and the quality, if anything, has only gotten better
Practical Engineering. His videos are about all the infrastructure that makes the modern world function.
Captain dissolution
Corridor crew

Lmao yeah I knew that was wrong but I couldn’t for the life of me remember
Thanks
James Hoffman, it even keeps getting better with time. The prophet for the coffee fans
I’ll add some that haven’t been mentioned.
Tech Ingredients - various experiments and builds. Everything on how to make rum to good novel speakers.
Erik Brandal - makes sound sculptures
/noclip - video game dev documentaries
This old Tony - Machining while being funny
Posy - Quirky beautiful retro HiFi/Tech
Edit: have to add Posy
Red Letter Media. I’ve grown bored of the content though but that’s a me problem.
Majuular. He makes long form retrospectives of old games, his Ultima retros are amazing. Just keeps getting better and better.
Bernadette Banner does historical (largely Victorian) sewing techniques and patterns but sometimes branches out into health and beauty recipes as well.
Abby Cox does historical fashion on a broader scale and sometimes has content about other historical trends or myths that she encounters in her research.

One I haven’t seen mentioned yet is Marius Hornberger. Awesomely talented young German maker.
no slow mo guys mentioned in this entire thing? always been entertaining and decently interesting to me
Everything by Jupiter Broadcasting. Not really a YouTube channel, but they stream there.
Legit Street Cars - just great high quality and extremely consistent.
Dawid does tech stuff - guys just funny as shit.
Red dead restorations - absolutely amazing how consistent he’s restorations are truly talented.
LSC as a car-tuber is just such a gift. No click bait, no rage bait, no being a dick in his cars. Just a love of vehicles and working on them. Him and Doug DeMuro are like the only thing keeping me sane in the car community since all the others turn to super cars, buying insanely expensive stuff, and just constant environmental shitting and debauchery. I know my cars aren’t great for the environment, but the way other car-tubers just open pollute and destroy the environment is disheartening.
Many A True Nerd for gaming, History Buffs for historical accuracy in movies and timmmm, a small channel of which I’m still surprised it’s so small because his videos are really well produced.
Tom Grossi. I’m not an NFL fanatic but his videos are well written and very entertaining. No sponsors or mid-video ads.
Ailaughatmyownjokes. Silvia wanted to name her channel “I laugh at my own jokes” but someone else had it, so she just added an “a” to the front. Very funny stuff. Lots of shorts if you’re attention span is dead. Like mine.
Adam Savage and Xyla Faolin have been mentioned and I agree. The PBS channels also.
pReview’d. They do movie/TV reactions and just started producing a travel show. Two besties watching stuff and having a good time.
Coy Jandreau. Total comic book nerd.
Myron Cook - A very hands on and educational geology channel
USCSB - US Chemical Safety Board that recreates incident investigations and gives recommendations.
