Fucking Champ here
Defunctland and Technology Connectios. I just really want those dudes to keep making stuff. A 2 hour documentary on the history and merits of the FastPass system at Disneyland or how a dishwasher works is soooooo my cup of tea.
+1 for Technology Connections <3
Not many. I had to stop myself or else my list would look like remon's.
+1000 for Bobby Fingers. Clearly you have good taste.
Civvie has some great stuff if you're into arena/arcade style shooters. His Blood review is classic
I love Bobby Fingers!
I really hate monthly subscriptions. The only two I could justify are my $5/m VPN and 3/m discord just bc I used it so much.
Recently I changed discord to $1 to Wikipedia, $1 to archive.org, $1 to Lemmy. It's not a lot but gives me peace of mind.
Surprises me that people pay for discord. Were there features you used that were (worth) paid?

Zero. I hate subscriptions. Idc what it's for.
I personally think that's valid. Do you ever make one-time donations?
ContraPoints, she only charges on months she produces content- it's not even every month if she isn't productive. Her Tangent videos are worth it.
ContraPoints is fantastic, but I have a hard time watching the content if I'm not in the headspace for it.
fair, but her tangents are more varied in topic she has videos on psychedelics, spirituality, the Barbie movie, etc.

Just a handful, but I usually will add a new one when it hooks me enough that I can't stop binging it.
Paralives! Because fuck EA for ruining The Sims (among many other games), it's time for a good competitor. Plus, they're from my city!

I tend to avoid subscriptions where I can, so the only time I've ever used Patreon was to access Dankpods' After Show (back when it was exclusive for patrons).
I really should give myself $200 or so to dole out between my favourite creators and open-source projects.
DuckDNS
Technology Connections
Safely Endangered
Also supporting other creators through Nebula.
I support Extra Fabulous Comics and a comic called "The Lost Never Die."
Extra Fabulous never ceases to make me laugh, and The Lost Never Die is a newer comic with an art style that I love.
Some More News, Clooos, and Zach Weinersmith (comic artist of SMBC and more)
PBS Eons and Wholesome
I'd throw some money at the 'free' ones if I could afford to.
Here's my list, it's fairly random:
lol if someone wants to explain why they downvoted that'd be nice too. lmao.
Besides yahtzee, Frost was the only other guy on second wind producing anything remotely watchable. I unsubbed the moment he left.
Yup! Second Wind used to be on my Patreon as well until Frost left.
Honestly none. I don'y have thr expendable income to do that.
If I had, it couled easilly be 50+ youtubers, podcasters open source software devs, ...
Right now its just Second Thought, I'm a leftist and love the content he creates. His video on East Palistine is really good and I would recommend it
Just a few.
The Deprogram Podcast
I support Infinite Backlog because I want to see that site thrive. Haven't found any other site where I can keep track of my videogame collection as nicely as with IB. That's my only Patreon thingy.
Nerd of Mouth // Wizard and the Bruiser
Special Books by Special Kids. He and his wife interview people with different disabilities and give you a little peek into their lives. Really interesting and inspiring stuff.
Time Suck and PBS Space Time
