The youtube comments can be a very toxic place but if you know where to look there are also very wholesome communities.

LGR is cozy and just a joy to watch for his laid-back passion. His community follows this mindset.

Most science youtubers have pretty chill comment sections. Same with makers, coffeetubers etc.
Gaming and influencer comments tend to be a shitshow. Obviously.

[–] Gamers_Mate@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

This is true, Scimandan has a pretty chill community. Though it gets attacked by flat earthers a lot.

[–] Bad_And_Wrong@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Nigahiga had chill comment section even with huge following back then. Of course there were negative things on the chat but his whole operations had 'avoid controversy as much as possible' philosophy which made his community generally chill.

[–] stackPeek@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I wonder what's he doing now

[–] Bad_And_Wrong@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

He streams on twitch.

[–] Gamers_Mate@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Oh I remember that channel he is a funny.

Eric Rosen and Tom Scott

None of my other subscribed YouTubers/communities compare, imo!

[–] Gamers_Mate@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Omg Tom Scott he is one of my favourites!

Where are your fingers?

[–] just_squanch_it@lemmy.one 4 points 1 year ago

Townsends is pretty great. Especially if you're into history, food, or nutmeg.

[–] stackPeek@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Jerma985 I think

I definitely don't see any kind of negative things from his community

[–] KnittingTrekker@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Clint's Reptiles! One of the most wholesome youtuber you could possibly find!

  • Karen Puzzles is just a bunch of wholesome jigsaw puzzle fans.
  • Townsends for wholesome 18th Century cooking fans.
  • Technology Connections for wholesome ELI5 electronics and engineering.
  • Post 10 for the most wholesome channel focused on unclogging of waterways and culverts you'll ever see. I'm not even joking.
  • acollierastro, someone called Dr. Collier's channel the "Jenny Nicholson of astrophysics" and thats not even wrong, but is it wholesome? I think so... but decide for your self.

I hope this doesn't come across as shameless self-advertising, but I am pretty proud of my own followers. (ca. 20k people, the channel is mostly about Breath of the Wild). Compared to the toxic stuff I've seen in other comment sections so far, those guys are super chill and welcoming, discuss with each other in a friendly and respectful manner and want to actively contribute with ideas, questions, their own theories and the like. I've had that channel for three years now and I had to kick out maybe five followers total since then, and two of them were spam bots anyway. Five rude people vs. 20k chill pals seems like a good quota to me ;)

[–] Gamers_Mate@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

That is awesome I will have to check out your channel some time.

[–] DreamySweet@vlemmy.net 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The comment sections on Vinesauce videos seem nice. They are usually focused on the content of the videos or Vinny instead of attacking each other.

[–] Gamers_Mate@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh cool I gotta check it out.

[–] DreamySweet@vlemmy.net 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

He is primarily a streamer, but posts all of his vods on YouTube here. Main channel is here. He is also the singer of the band, Red Vox.

[–] jandar_fett@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I second Vinesauce Vinny. He is just wholesome in general, participates in multiple let's play charities and is just a decent dude. Some chud he worked with tried to cancel him by lying about him and he is known to be so genuinely likeable that the attempt failed miserably.

[–] DreamySweet@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago

I remember that. I heard he did it because he was mad about getting kicked out of the group over misusing donations to buy an arcade machine or something. He ended up killing his own career instead.

[–] Funkmaster-Hex@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Chase the Craft/Still it or Gavin Webber/the Curd Nerd.

[–] readbeanicecream@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

@Gamers_Mate Camping with Steve!

[–] kratoz29@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Un mundo inmenso would qualify on that, but honestly I don't give a shit about YT communities, I only watch the videos, like or dislike and move on.

[–] allie@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Haven’t checked in lately, but DIYperks has such a wholesome vibe

[–] lemonflavoured@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Cracking The Cryptic has a decent community, as might be expected from a channel that mainly solve sudokus and cryptic crosswords. Wirtual (a Trackmania streamer) seems to have a vaguely sane community as those sort of people go.

[–] Saturdaycat@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I like tabieats as well as throttle house for two of my polar opposite interests

Ryan Trahan

[–] Junkers_Klunker@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

This old Tony

[–] Wordless@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

OneTopicAtATime, the most wholesome YouTuber with a very wholesome fanbase. Also a great ally.
