The crippling depression that's completely stopped me from functioning in any meaningful way. That's definitely the big one.

Forrest Valkai. He's a biologist who makes a mixture of educational content, videos debunking creationist claims (in an educational way rather than the "look at this fucking idiot" approach that much of atheist youtube seems to take), and just some silly fun in-between.
He doesn't have the insanely high production value of other channels named here, but he's the most wholesome person I've ever seen. His love for life and science radiates off of him and watching him passionately explain how cool something is genuinely makes me happy in such a depressing and pessimistic world.
You people are nuts lol. I don't like Epic either, but if you think buying a $60 game is somehow less work than just claiming a free game, you're delusional. $60 is at least several hours worth of literally working for the vast majority of us, whereas a miniscule amount of hard drive space and a one-time affair of setting up an account is a non-issue. Especially if you use a password manager (as you should), then you don't even need to remember the password.
There are plenty of reasons to hate Epic, stop making up bad ones.
Thanks. I'll be checking these out later.
I got to step 20, where my password suddenly caught on fire and Paul died.
My day is ruined.
...what does that have anything to do with closing accounts? Accounts do not degrade.
Tell me you hate poor people without telling me you hate poor people.
In my eyes, if it's extremely unlikely that we're real, it's even more unlikely that another species is not only real, but has significantly better technological advancements than us as well. It's just the same problem with extra steps. But the thing about the simulation thing, is that it's completely unfalsifiable and has no impact on our reality even if it's true. So there isn't really any need to consider it outside of a philosophical conversation.
The free will one and the fear of an AI uprising is understandable, even if I disagree myself, but the other two... What makes you believe that in the entire universe, we're the only planet that managed intelligent life? And the simulation thing is just crazy.
Huh, I had always assumed oranges got their name from the color, not the other way around...

I mean, yes, it would be? If I can solve world hunger by sacrificing my left arm to the elder gods or some shit, I'm still losing my left arm. It's still a sacrifice.
