What is your favorite content creator that has under 10,000 followers/subs? - Lemmy.world

Tired of seeing the same old youtubers/twitch streamers get recommended/talked about all the time. Do you have some really good small time folks that are amazing?

I don’t follow many people on YouTube so the only person that meets this criteria is Gracie Fitzpeter, who really deserves more views. I absolutely love channels that do overlong in-depth videos on super niche topics that I have zero stake in. She has so many hours of videos on the Warrior Cats series and Resident Evil, and I’ve watched probably all of them. I’ve never read the Warrior Cats books or played Resident Evil. Perfect.

The first one I saw: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFFjATF3I30

I love watching stuff like that! I’ll have to watch some of their stuff!

I’m really into retro video games. The channel I enjoy that the most that has the least number of subscribers is Jeremy Parish. He makes excellent little 10 minute retro game reviews. They are well thought out, include some interesting history, and no hyperbole.

Ummm… I also have a channel. 👀 In some videos I do longer reviews of Game Boy games.

And I post weekly videos where I play random retro games with my silly friend Samantha.

…I wouldn’t say it’s “amazing” but I do really enjoy watching the videos I make. 😅

I listen to Ranting Monkey. He's a political and news commentator that leans conservative. He posts 2 hour live streams five or more days a week. His channel has over 10k subscribers but gets a few thousand views on his live streams.
Ranting Monkey

Breaking news, fun stories, and pop culture info, I'm just a man with a monkey avatar expressing my profane opinions about the crazy stuff going on in the world, usually by responding directly to people saying the this stuff.

Let’s play with Brigands is a small creator mostly doing lets plays of old sierra adventure games and the like. Love the cosy small atmosphere.

Monocat. puts out very chill videos about EUC. Even if that is not your thing, it’s worth your time getting some perspective on something that might make you look at things differently: youtu.be/1dBvELqWqOg

She helps her boyfriend with his channel so that’s why her posts are uploads are infrequent.

I actually recently sold my car and “upgraded” (to me) to an electric scooter! So hearing about electronic unicycles is right up my alley.
Sweet, I ride an electric scooter too!
I’ve been watching this guy’s backlog on building a kernel and bootloader from scratch. A bit monotone but amazing technical knowledge. youtube.com/@nanobyte-dev

Art of Drink for anyone who’s into craft cocktails, soft drinks, general food science. 10.8k subs but close enough. He’s a treasure trove of knowledge, technique and reference materials for applying food science to drinks
Art of Drink

If you want to learn about drinks, this is the place for you. Art of Drink is all about cocktails, soda, wine, beer, distilling and even water. If it's liquid and you can drink it, I'll eventually get around to making it. About Darcy O'Neil I've been writing about drinks since 2004 and started Art of Drink in 2005 then wrote the book Fix the Pumps: The History of the American Soda Fountain in 2009 (over 10,000 copies sold!). I originally studied chemistry and worked in research labs for 15 years, and recently we purchased 12 acres of farmland to start a vineyard and maybe a winery. The future looks interesting.

Used to be Carnasa cause I subbed when he had 300 subs but now he’s got way more than 10k

Chrontendo has been playing every NES/Famicom came in release order for over a decade. Slow upload schedule but quality content.

Pixelmusement main series is “Ancient DOS Games” and I was watching this series before he was on YouTube from his own site. Basically every episode (has over 300 now) is dedicated to a single game where he reviews is and tells you how to getting it run on DOSBox.

not under 10k but he has 20k subscribers. Prussian Blue on youtube has excellent chemistry videos.

Rand118. Streams ftl.

Famous for lots of salt at ftl rng.

Is he not very good at the game? Usually when people complain about FTL RNG they are new to the game or just bad. I mean no offense, I’m a bad player too but most FTL streamers I’ve seen can beat the game quite consistently.

No, he’s very good. Has I think 24 ships in a row random no pause.

Just that kind of personality. It’s something he tries to work on, do I find it kinda funny.

@ericbomb not under 10k on YouTube, as I just checked he has 32k but I think it will fit the bill of being good quality and not typical YouTube like and subscribe/here my midroll AD/ protect with VPN type.

My go to advise for YouTube creators are Totalbiscuit and SuperGreatFriend https://www.twitch.tv/supergreatfrien?sr=a. TB rest his soul is controversial but was a good guy. SGF is also mature US office worker that streams because he likes. So variety of old/new games + good humour.

Rick Darge is fantastic if you’re into high-quality, short form sketch comedy. Krazam has grown recently but is still relatively small and makes more tech-related sketches.

If you like laid back walking videos then ABitOfAWander

No wonder Americans say you need a car to go around. Looking at the videos you can get a sense of vastness and how lonely/deserted the place is.

Joel Bocko, aka Lost in the Movies 8.84k subs on YouTube - particularly for those who like Twin Peaks but also for anyone who loves quality cinema, both popular and arthouse.

His work on Twin Peaks is magnificent, and deserves so much more attention than it gets. And he comes across as a really nice genuine, unassuming guy.

His website is www.lostinthemovies.com, with podcasts, interviews written pieces and more. Well worth a look.

Dawgstrip is pretty great, they do car mods and videos on the Gambler 500 when they go. They also do some travel vlogs sometimes as well.

It’s a pretty fun channel

They have 10.5k subs though but I’d still recommend it.

DawgStrip

Mechanical mayhem and automotive adventure with a side of Canadian crazy, saving cars from the junkyard and giving them a new lease on life. At least for a short time. And probably in ways not intended for automobiles to be treated … but it is fun. As always - 2 guys, 4 wheels (usually). -The DawgStrip Crew.

I found the channel from an animated dunkey video and it’s been cool watching him develop his style in little clips since then.

I’ve been enjoying www.twitch.tv/moridrex he streams a variety of games, but I honestly love his banter most of the time. Very chill dude.

I drink and I play games. Focused more on world-building/survival/resource management games, but occasionally there will be others; also hoping to add cooking streams and Warhammer40k painting streams in the future.

youtube.com/@genericallyentertaining has a lot of great fantasy book reviews and pretty funny skits

I’ve recently started watching Alice in Wonder1and . She’s a trans girl from New Zealand, doing some form of memey content in some way related to trans or femboys. I personally find her content really entertaining.

I also like ParrotDash’s content. He’s the person who completes about every Celeste map ever deathless. Their content is more stream highlights, but is still entertaining.

Unresolved Textual Tension is a great YouTube / podcast for book reviews and/or roasts. Generally a mix of fantasy and sci-fi, largely newer stuff (The Locked Tomb, Murderbot, Kushiel) with some classics thrown in (Dune, Hyperion). The show features 3 people with great chemistry.
Unresolved Textual Tension

Fantasy and scifi review, analysis, and sass.
