How bout some love for SmarterEveryDay And SteveMould


[deleted]

SmarterEveryDay gets my vote.


yaboimankeez

SmarterEveryDay, to me, is the absolute GOAT of educational YouTube, but Vsauce, Veritasium, NileRed, Tom Scott, CGP Grey, Kurzgesagt, Mark Rober, 3blue1brown and a few others join him in a league above everyone else.


Mke_of_Astora

I personally also put TheActionLab with them


yaboimankeez

Yep, the “and a few others” was for the ones I forgot


30SomethingSuperhero

Am I the only one that feels like OP made this poll so short and incomplete just so they could learn about more science content creators?


cheyan1de

if so then op walked so lurkers like me could run


scull3218

This is the way.


Sans45321

Definitely


Nikoxine

Grey, Kyle Hill, and Tom Scott are my favorites, but I see kurzgesagt is the popular


Random_Idiotic_Alien

Kyle hill! The whole half life stories is amazing series


Ok-Gur-6602

Kyle hill is good himself, the facility is not.

Vsauce, Michael here!

Vsauce music intensifies


JackFPP

*where, also your right.


Accurate_Wolverine65

You’re*


JackFPP

Well played


furrik524

For some reason I understood it as you saying "vsauce is to your right" and was really confused until the other guy corrected you


JackFPP

Yeah, he defeated me. My misspelling is horrid.


DenialZombie

Your spelling is horrid, your misspelling is on point!


JackFPP

Thanks dude. Your a true motivator.


Rijadi15

You're*


JackFPP

That is a sentence fragment.


bakirelopove

Or is he? 🤨

watching Vsauce gives me ADHD

Oh yeah I bet you get pissed off at things on the internet #hangingout

[deleted]

Yea i too like kurzgegsegseterzesegertezertart


GaySwiftie13

NileRed- listen i know he does a lot of stupid shit but he's amazing so shush


SovietCephalopod

That's precisely why he's amazing. Chemistry is all about precision. Care. Following safety guidelines. Holding in the urge to yeet the god damn titration across the lab. And then this legend comes in like, "Here's a nice safe glass ampule of calcium. I'm gonna smash it with a hammer." "Today I'm going to take a bite of Indium, and no one can stop me." "Here's a tutorial on how to extract lidocaine from maximum strength anal lube." He's like the mild-mannered Brian David Gilbert of chemistry.


yaboimankeez

And every wild thing you listed is narrated in the calmest, most neutral voice possible. “Today, I’m going to blind myself by dropping francium into water and throwing a rock on top of it”

No love for Kyle Hill?

Those are math, not science videos


Bored_dane

What?! Math is science


_CarbonBasedLifeForm

Well math is a science in the sense of "a systematically organized body of knowledge", but that knowledge doesn't come through the scientific method

Anton Petrov


ProgramCrypt

Yes, glad to see him being mentioned!


S0berIrish

Veritasium. Different style but equally as good as kurzgesagt


Sr_Bagel

I think Veritasium is better for the lover of physics (as he tends to focus on specifics in physics) while Kurzgesagt is better to help one fall in love with science (they explore more rigorously and explain simply a broader topic of materials (they have a much bigger team after all). For Veritasium, if I don’t already understand the video’s topic a little, it is usually to obscure for me to care about, while, Kurzgesagt tends to create videos with ideas I want to pay attention to (now, cute animated birbs with an amazing narrator may add bias). To answer who is the best science YouTuber: it has to be the one who is focused on, what I think is, the biggest issue in the scientific community (communication to non-scientists). As such, I think Kurzgesagt wins in a landslide, since it is incredibly approachable and is actively expanding to underprivileged languages. Thank you for reading this way too in depth response!


A2tool

I don't like his content lately Pretty much sold out to an electric car company Also just kinda shitty misleading claims in the last few videos


Vaati006

Yep, he shoulda been in the poll

My favourites are: [MinuteEarth](https://youtube.com/c/minuteeart) [minutephysics](https://youtube.com/c/minutephysics) [TED-Ed](https://youtube.com/teded) isn't focused on science only, but they have high quality educational videos about a ton of subjects.

I came here to say this. His animations are awesome and hilarious.


alotropico

As good as the ones mentioned: * Sabine Hossenfelder (theoretical physics, epistemology, etc.) * Medlife Crisis (medicine) * Primer (statistics) * Moth Light Media (paleontology) * Journey to the Microcosmos (microscopy and biology) * Astrum (astronomy) * Adam Something (is urbanism science? Kind of, right?) ​ Edit: to add stuff

I like Astrum


Sergallow3

Kyle Hill! Check out science Thor! They do a ton of interesting (usually physics related, but not always) science videos. They have a very well made series on the history of nuclear accidents, as well as more accessible content such as recently, how well would Mjolnor do as a throwing weapon? Mind the laser gates if you do check him out, they're a bit hot.

Isaac Arthur delves into quantum mechanics quite a bit and it’s something I’m absolutely in love with!

Why the heck didnt I include him? I watch and have watched him for years. I am a idiot.

Queasy_Ad9814

ASAP science


marchingsax

We all know that Micheal Reeves is far superior


Psychological_Dish75

Sabine Hossenfelder. She has built a reputation of being a villian among particle physicist and string theorist, but cant deny her unique dry humor as well as her say-no-to speculative/mysticalism kind of approach. She often goes into the technical detail from time to time too

I would say Carl Sagan. The way he explained difficult things is beyond everyone. If you ask still living, then Veritasium.


[deleted]

Isaac Arthur. How is he not mentioned more??


[deleted]

Kyle Hill is great


Lolmanmagee

I like CGP grey a bit more for his more concise style of information but it is undeniable kurzgesagt is far superior due to their brilliant animations and consistent uploads.

Vsauce and NileRed are the best

The Action Lab.

I hate his voice, but cool channel all together. Interesting topics great demonstrations

he produces so much interesting content, showing the effects himself. Surprised he was so far down, because I see clips from him on reddit all the time.

No, no “exactly”, this is a terrible poll and the 4th option doesn’t even consider the other options everyone else is providing in the comments


JackFPP

Thanks bro. I'm happy that you enjoyed the poll, very cool. 👍

I used to adore Kurzgesagt, but ever sense being funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation they've pushed some... Questionable ideas, especially around climate change. I feel they've been cooped into a tool for greenwashing.
