Indeed. I am subscribed to 15 channels in total. All of them content creators that do not rely on shock editing, AI slop, or false advertising. If all of the low effort BS on YouTube disappeared this moment, I would not notice at all because I don't watch it in the first place.

I am a boring old fart, so the channels I am subscribed to may not be of any interest to you. Clickspring, Techmoan, HardwareUnboxed, TechIngredients and other such channels.

I bet Technology Connections is right up your alley.
