MODERATORS
 

Post the names of youtubers and other internet microcelebs you love with a burning passion based on more than vibes. Very preferably not large.

A good example is Cathode Ray Dude, who makes long videos on older technology. He doesn't seem to have done anything reactionary, he's got a personality far beyond "the algorithm", and he doesn't associate with any terrible people. And I enjoy his videos.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Benjamin Magnus, a streamer who plays both some niche games and popular ones. Some games I don't see many other people play. Xenonauts 2, Rule the Waves 3, Ultimate General: Civil War, and Hearts of Iron 3 being my favorite to watch. He also does Rimworld, Project Zomboid, and other games, but the games mentioned are my favorite to watch.

It's a livestream (on Twitch but restreamed over to YT too), so it's longform content and requires some attention span to watch.

Honestly? Modern Yogscast.

I'm biased as I was a fan as a kid but watching their minecraft shit in 2025 is still so good, and Simon is even funnier now everyone is older and he spouts some hilarious shit. Politically they're also decent folks too.

I'm glad the Sjin thing was dealt with (I wasn't watching them back then) but now they seem to be hitting their stride.


Bonus mention

Posy explores weird and wonderful stuff that he enjoys with masterful editing, music, and a voice that should be immortalised on a golden record.
