Literally any and all of them. I dropped Google services in 2017.

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun

2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.

Basically, all of them, sort of, not really. I use Invidious to not contribute to the money much. It's peak entertainment watching the engineering tubers (ALL of them) do nothing related to the video for half of it, most of which is mostly spent shilling corporations.
Armoured Skeptic, because he just became a talking nut job once he got into that beef with Logicked. Also appears to have gotten worse since losing ShoeOnHead.
danooct1, good channel but has stopped making new videos again.
Good Mythical Morning. I got tired of them always covering food. I know good mythical more has more range but I got burned out first before bothering. Oh and Stevie left recently.
Can't think of anyone i dropped for a specific reason since Roosterteeth/Ryan Heywood. I never really dropped AvE even with his dumb conservative shit because he was always a moron and was up front about it. I guess i will not though because I didnt know he want as cookoo as full magat, but i can see how he'd turn that way.
Idk I saw roosterteeth going toxic for a while and got much more sparing with my subscriptions back then. I'll always shout out Ray Narvaez Jr. And his lovely wife Tina for being some of the best on YouTube for a long time now. Honorary mention to Matt, Chibi, and Nagzz to round out the pissboy crew.
Best Ever Food Review Show. I was a fan and really enjoyed the content, then they hosted Joe Rogan. I left and never looked back. Fuck Joe Rogan.
I really liked Kyle Hill until he started spouting Rationalist bullshit and advocating the views of Eliezer Yudkowsky. He did a video on Rocco’s Basilisk and I dropped his channel.
Whistlindiesel, I already was getting bad vibes from him when he started doing literal vigelante harassment of folks, when he did a video with cops, and his fawning over the Killdozer idiot. Wrapping a lambo in Trump shit was the most "last straw" last straw in history.
Jeff Geerling, over his past homophobic blog posts.
Any that use AI/LLMs.
So Hank Green most recently?
How ridiculous. Very Christian.
They could be worse. They could be as bad as that twerp from Bikes and Beards.
All three of the main stars are literally youth pastors, and I'm sure in their private lives they're indeed Very Christian but I can still respect how they aren't in anyone's faces about it in their videos in light of the above. I can handle the occasional offhanded reference to Big J if it means I get to see someone yeet a Frisbee into low Earth orbit, or whatever.
Shadiversity was a sword youtuber who would get into occasional e-drama, but still produced interesting content about medieval weaponry. Over time they started releasing pro-AI and culture war rants completely unrelated to their sword stuff. They had another channel that was more streamer/podcasty where they pandered to a right-wing crowd which I guess leaked over into their main channel.
Pretty recently I stopped watching Oneyplays. They were a Let's Play/comedy channel in the same vain as Game Grumps and TheRunawayGuys, and they got me through some really hard times including COVID.
They were always kind of risque, but I assumed they knew their jokes were edgy, and not to be said in the real world. (to be fair, that is true with a lot of the old members)
For the last year or two though, most of the best members have left or aren't on half as much as they used to be, and they've been doubling down on their controversial jokes. Everything's "cuck this, soy that, estrogen the other" and half the "jokes" are just homophobic and racial slurs that they have to censor out afterwards. Even if you have a thick skin to that kind of stuff, it's just so repetitive and unfunny now.
A few I've watched got outed as creeps or predators (Wilbur Soot, Exurb1a, + a couple others I can't remember)
There was one space news channel I watched who's name I can't remember now (he even showed up in one of Everyday Astronaut's live streams at one point years ago iirc) who turned out to be MAGA and started making videos about how "nAsA iS aCtUaLlY cOmMuNiSt"
My most recent unsub was Brodie Robertson, he was apparently caught sharing loli images in a discord server or something. Apparently the guy who called him out for it is some alt-right grifter, but Brodie's defence amounted to "it's just drawings bro"
I've been watching YouTube as my main source of entertainment for 15+ years so there are countless creators who's content I've just lost interest in too.
That one Canadian dude who says chooch and doll hairs a lot because he started showing his trumpy conservative side and it got weird.
AvE, I had the same experience. Disappointing
