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.

Random Indian guy with one upload that explains the solution to a very specific problem I'm having with some software. Thank you my nameless friends.

They're a dying breed! Everyone is switching to AI voice-overs for explanations and I say that's a damn shame. Bring back the heavily accented English, it's draining all the magic and charm from my preferred method of solving tech issues. What a sad state, this world.

Pretty much all the tech knowledge I have was taught to me by random Indian you tubers and I am forever grateful to them for it.
