    My favorite channel is nemsk who produces content for mainly call of duty but also a bunch of other games. Compared to other YouTubers, he doesn't use the overused picture of a face of a man with a surprised reaction with big letters and an extravagant title. If you've seen those big famous cod YouTubers who have millions of followers, you know what I mean. He also does noncommentaries. Music and everything is relaxing.

    Not sure about favourite YouTuber, they’re is a few I go between lately, I used to have favourites about 10 years ago but don’t think I could put that to one nowadays personally.

    to name one I enjoy the content nowadays would be oversimplified.

    I actually lost faith in Youtube because of two things which happened just last month in October 23.

    1. No Adblocker allowed anymore. If you continue to use Adblockers they will give you denial pf service ban. Youtube now wants this people to subscribe for an Premium account, but I will never do so. They really shot in their own leg with this move as I don't consume as much videos as used to before. And many people do the same.

    2. On October 9th, Sony Music and Google shut down my channel with over 4000 subscriber and 2500+ videos because of serveral copyright strikes. Youtube's guidelines and policies are a contributary cause why that happened to me. I were aware of those before, but never thought they could really be so merciless. After more than 50 emails, no reply from both sides. This completely changed my mind about Youtube and Google in an irreversible way.

    I put a lot of work into my daily uploads over about 2 years and helped to increase the traffic of their website but they treated me like criminal. Never going to trust in them again.

    So, technically to answer your initial question and without to sounding like an egomaniac, I really was my own favorite YouTuber. Noone else I put trust in as much as myself. Sounds strange, but is the plain truth. But everything is gone now.

    But apart of that, I have a few channels I visit frequently:
    1. FailRace (GTA:V Survive the Hunt challenge every first of month)
    2. ASMR Glow - (I used to have a crush on her, but now its okay. ;-)
    3. ChrisMaximus (german ETS2 ambassador)
    4. NPlay (NordRheinTVPlay) - German simulator channel
    5. Train Sim World - lol - since a few months I follow the streams and videos regularly.
    6. Felix der Weise (german TSW ambassador)

    Do you also know that Matt has a Youtube channel with about 18k subs? But he doesn't post content as regular anymore.

    EX Youtuber - the infamous mighty DRACHENLORD :D

    His (now demolished) home has even been modelled into a CSGO workshop map (de_drachenschanze)





    To those who do not know the story, he's coming over as a victim of bullies, but the more you dig into the story the more you discover he's just a narcissist, pathetic liar and bully himself. Provoke to get attention and clicks, and he's reported to have made roughly €5000 a month on YT on his best days. Now he's completely broke and blames everyone but himself for his situation.

    So for scientific and documentary stuff, I like these two excellent channels
    https://www.youtube.com/@veritasium
    https://www.youtube.com/@ColdFusion

    For gaming history, this is a fascinating well made channel. Fantastic research and narration.
    https://www.youtube.com/@XboxAhoy

    And this guy, speedrunner turned investigative journalist, he's even been unsuccessfully sued by one of the biggest cons in gaming history. His channel features one of the most crazy hacks I've ever seen for GTA:SA that involves "reprogramming" the game by doing specific actions at specific moments.

    yea he’s been busy (I even saw him message on the forums at 2am today), he’s mentioned a few times about returning to streaming lately, I wasn’t sure if he meant on his own channel or on the DTG one

    His tutorials are invaluable and helped me a lot getting into Train Simulator (Classic) editing.

    Again cheers for that DTG Matt

    This is his channel MattPlaysTV. Found it accidentally by looking for a tutorial about the different camera settings in TSW.

    This video will be 7 years old at December 17th and still a lot to learn about with it even in the recent TSW4:

    I wouldn't give Geof Marshal any views if I were you. His videos can be interesting but I've heard some horrible things about him. Not going to say what on here but I'm sure if you do some digging you'll find out...

    In terms of Train Sim content:
    The official TSW channel
    Trainsimulatordriver
    The British Ace
    Dad Rail
    Ramagani
    Felix der Weise

    Away from TSW it‘s mainly motorsport & football related content. Too many channels to mention. :)

    He did a "Need for Speed" in real life and has served 2 years as a result!

    But his videos are nice! I do like his attitude.

    Bobby Fingers. It’s the only channel you need to watch. No one else puts the same level of effort into their videos.

    You guys are talking about two different people...
    Geoff Marshall, railway YouTuber
    https://www.youtube.com/@geofftech2

    Geoff Marshall, went on vehicular rampage
    https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-somerset-67378664

    It is possible to have multiple people with the same name y'know!

    Yes, this was explained earlier. I just like the idea of a really nice railway enthusiast with such a large following hijacking a military vehicle and running down a police roadblock!
