The all feed on YouTube is completely useless now, so for those that only use the subscribed tab, what’s your favourite channels?
I’m liking the PBS channels, Ryan Georg and pitch meeting, stuff made here, animagraffs, map men, practical engineering, tasting history, and couple of more but kinda similar theme.
