If you like artists and nonsense comedy to distract you from reality, I highly recommend Drawfee

Legit Street Cars, Primitive Technology, Ghost Town Living, Donut (their older stuff is better than newer), Colin Furze (older stuff also better than new, but newer stuff is bigger, more expensive projects as his channel has grown), Blackmail Studio and Wristwatch Revival. Those are the YT channels I'm constantly watching (along with Critical Role, but excluded due to length of episodes).
"The Infographics Show" kind of my favorite.
Also recently seen video "Tourism in Afganistan" recorded less than year ago. Interesting content I would say.
Sampson boat co (incredible rebuild of a classic sailing yacht)
Andrew camerata (crazy construction projects and equipment)
love me some Drawfee
LEMiNNO, Barely Sociable, Melody Sheep
Kill Tony (1 minute stand-up comedy peformed by mostly amateurs)
One Bite Pizza Reviews (try and guess the pizza score before it drops)
Overly Sarcastic Productions have a fun mix of history and entertainment, combined with a nuce art style
Captain Disillusion (vital video debunking and general videography/effects)
Jim Can't Swim (criminal interrogation psychology)
Informative ones I subscribe to:
- Technology Connections
- Rebecca Watson
- Steve Mould
- Dr Becky
- Naomi Wi
- Climate Town
- History Matters
its called doom scrolling literally OP they weaponized everything no tinfoil
Photonicinduction - Fun with electricity. A good reminder about not messing with electrical devices and cables.
The Engineerguy - Bill Hammack explains the mechanisms and insides of various items. (CC-by licenced.)
Bushbeeman - In the bush, finding bees, the man.
SUSD - Modern boardgame and cardgame reviews.
Haven't checked these out much, but they were recommended too:

Micheal MJD is a nice channel if you're interested into retro hardware
I really like Potholer54 - he doesn't do any ads so youtube NEVER promotes his videos. He will read, cite, link all his sources and more importantly, will respond to misrepresentations of science in the media. He will usually explain the science behind the articles he sources and explain why the media gets it wrong.
I've also found Skip Intro is really good regarding copaganda. He has some great videos on a lot of the media I was exposed to growing up and its good to reexamine it with a more modern take. He also dunks on paw patrols which is fucking terrible.
From the bandwagon: GothamChess. He's a bit too dramatic at times, but it's fun.
Self-sufficient me is nice and relaxing
