Lesser Known YouTube Channels

[dokyun]

I have a small collection of YouTube channels that I enjoy but aren't really all that well known as far as I'm aware, and don't have a very high subscriber count. Some of them still regularly upload while others have been dormant for several years now, but they usually have a large enough trove of content to make them worth checking out. The channels I have here are mostly technology/video game oriented. Got any underappreciated channels to share? Post 'em here!

Oddity Archive
One man's chronicle of cultural tidbits from past eras of entertainment. A lot of focus on television, video and film ephemera. Old channel with a big backlog.

Dreamcast 84
Reviews on Dreamcast games, a lot of Japanese exclusives. The guy's editing and commentary is charming despite the low production value. Hasn't uploaded in a few years though.

Pixelmusement
Videos mostly on DOS and other classic games, old channel with a big backlog.

Jeff_Wins
Some guy's channel about random stuff. A good handful of videos on PlayStation game copying and console modding.

Vectrex4Life
Did a lot of reviews on strange games, mostly racing. Switched focus to DJing but is still active.

Druaga1
Used to be pretty popular but hasn't uploaded in several years. Mostly about computer hardware and strange operating systems.

Ultra Healthy Video Game Nerd
A lot of content focused on unlicensed/bootleg games, import games, underappreciated classics, and fringe media. Most famous for his series on Hong Kong 97 and subsequent interview with its creator. Recently came back from a several year hiatus, so I reccomend you check him out.

GST Channel
Videos mostly about video game music, compilations of tunes, artist features and digging into composers, but also some odd cultural analyses and dives into strange history.

danooct1
Highest subscriber count out of the list, but I don't see him talked about that much anymore. Videos about computer viruses mostly targeting DOS and old Windows. Seems to be on hiatus.

Regular Touhou Channel
Touhou fan videos and reviews spliced out of AVGN clips. Remakes anime openings with paper animations that are very soulful and cute.

This seems like something that I may be able to add towards. It's always teh channels that have 4-5 digit subscriber counts that are the most intriguing. I'll just share a hodge-podge that I've subscribed to over the years and have remained niche to some degree. Admittedly, I've stopped keeping up with YouTube a lot as of late, so

ANTHROFUTURISM
Exploring theoretically plausible lunar colonisation strategies. A lot of the ideas suggested are, in my opinion, really quite novel. Definitely something to look towards if you're wanting inspiration for a hard SciFi project.

R. Grant Jones
Backlog of videos covering Bibles in a technical manner, truly a reviewer of Bibles and not translations. Presented in a very relaxed manner, as if you were being showcased a small corner of a vast library. Uploads infrequently and has other videos not of this specific format.

Doodlebud
Lots of fountain pen videos, probably also some on other types of pens and stationary. I'd be interested if anyone has other channels in this realm to share.

LugnutsK
Hasn't uploaded in half a decade; features some rather complex and unintuititive OpenTTD strategies for rail. You will learn something new, maybe unless you're already familiar. A little bit of trivia behind this channel is that the uploader used to be featured in something called openttdcoop, which were highly efficient games played for weeks on end. One of these players, V453000, is now a developer at Wube, working on Factorio. I reckon his experience has probably helped to shape some of the changes in trains and rail that we can play around with nowadays.

Blaine Chappell
Aaron Stephens
Clifton Hicks
These three channels are focused on old time banjo. If I find any more, then I'll edit this post to include them. These three, particularly Clifton Hicks, have been great inspirations for me with learning banjo in my free time, though I still have a long way to go. Huge collection of songs in different styles and genres.
