I've never watched a single video of MrBeast. The topics just don't interest me at all. I really don't see the hype.

I have no idea who the guy is, but why is anyone surprised that someone who goes by Mr Beast is living up to his stage name?

I keep thinking I should look into this MrBeast drama, then I remember I just do not give a single fuck.

I went through a h3h3 phase when I was like 20, then realised that any YT drama is just toxic and it’s best to avoid it entirely.

I miss Tom Scott, just made quality videos with none of the BS. Nothing over the top, just interesting content from a genuine guy who cares about his audience.

Destin at Smarter Every Day and Steven Mould seem like solid guys, and content similar to Tom Scott if you haven't seen them.

Technology Connections is a nice breath of fresh air in the YouTube space if you want something tech related
