Anyone have recommendations for non-male youtubers? My YouTube subscriptions are pretty much all men, from gaming, to education, to music.... The few non-male YouTube channels have very infrequent uploads, which makes my subscription feed even further skewed.

If you're into YouTube mini-docs... Tara Mooknee, Alice Cappelle, Lily Alexandre, Zoe Bee, and DamiLee are some of my favorites.

Philosophy Tube (Discussions of philosophy and politics)

Verilybitchie (Discussions of film and media from a feminist perspective)

Contrapoints (Started as a channel to discuss the alt-right online bubble and subsequently transformed to also talk a lot about gender and sex)

Sabine Hossenfelder (Science news channel and in-depth view on different stem topics)

Answer in Progress (Exploring random topics with a strong focus on facing procrastination, academic struggles, etc along the way)

ETA: Mexie (Talking about environmentalism, anticapitalism, liberation and veganism)

I have so many! Mostly food, some others though.

Carla Lalli Music is an entertaining chef and recipe developer who shares recipes from her books. She takes inspiration from all sorts of cuisines and blends them into delicious, adaptable recipes. Crispy gingery ground beef like lime and herbs earned an instant spot in my regular meal rotation.

Claire Saffitz and her team bring mostly baking videos with occasion forays into cocktails, dinners, and lifestyle. Expect lots of cat cameos and fun editing easter eggs.

NYT Cooking has Sohla and Ham El-Waylly, a wildly creative culinary power couple who can make a multi course tasting menu out of anything. Sohla has other solo stuff scattered around, she opts to do work with other channels rather than host her own though.

Minutefood is food science, and even if you think your food science knowledge is good, you’ll still probably learn something from Kate.

Simone Giertz and Laura Kampf are both makers (who are friends and often collaborate).

Jenny Nicholson is super knowledgeable on theme parks and online culture in general and is why I have watched four hours about a theme park I'll never visit, very funny and interesting. https://youtube.com/@JennyNicholson

Polygon have Simone who is hilarious and now Xtina who just did their first forty minute dive into vtuber culture which I'm looking forward to watching. There's back catalogue of Jenna Stoeber here which is worth watching even though the company were stupid and got rid of her. (the three other people in the video team are great too) https://youtube.com/@polygon

Jenna Stoeber has been building up her new channel, there's been some anime, horror and gaming videos so far, she's also streaming if I remember right. Usually an instant watch for me https://youtube.com/@the_jenna

It's WoW and she's pretty well known if you're in the community but Hazelnuttygames is very chill and covers some of her life stuff as well as the game at the end of her videos. https://youtube.com/@Hazelnuttygames

(edit) Bonus round: https://youtube.com/@alispagnola https://youtube.com/@HowtoADHD

https://youtube.com/@lily_lxndr Her internet sludge video was very cool https://youtu.be/OuaDbu_VBLY

I can highly recommend all of these creators. Each makes entertaining and informative content frequently.
