I might be boring here, but outside of Lemmy, none of the websites I frequent are niche.

YouTube, Wikipedia, Fanfiction.net, Archive of Our Own, MAL, sci-hub, eBay, TV Tropes, Reddit (though I only read now, I don't participate in the discussions since July).

What do you like to watch on youtube?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

A wide variety of content. I really like watching cooking related channels like Food Wishes, Alex (French Guy Cooking), Ethan Chlebowski, Jun's Kitchen, Italia Squisita, ETC.

For tech I like Level1Techs and related channels, Serve the Home, MKBHD, Der8auer, Jeff Geerling, Gamer's Nexus, Northwest Repair, Louis Rossmann, maker.moekoe.

For science I like Huygens Optics, The Thought Emporium, Veritasium, Dr. Becky, AlphaPhoenix, Steve Mould, and many others.

For music, I like Polyphia, Ichika Nito, BERNTH, CharlesBerthoud, BAND-MAID, Paolo Gans, Ado, Syudou, ELFENSJóN, ETC...

For fountain pens I like Flexperiments (the channel has 237 subbs, but really deserves more), and Doodlebud.

Others: Not Just Bikes, GxAce, Tom Scott, Inheritance Machining, The Bioneer.
