What are some channels or creators that do science/engineering experiments? (lemmy.ca)

Inspired by this post:

If we're reviving everything then start with Mythbusters

What are some modern channels that do similar stuff? If episodes area available, what are older shows that might work?

Some more general examples that come to mind:

SloMoGuys - mostly seeing things in slow motion to see how it works
How Ridiculous - For a younger audience, but it fits
Mark Rober - Engineered stuff

Not quite related, but maybe:

Are there any that are not on youtube? I'm trying to degoogle my life, and youtube is on the hardest ones to find alternatives to.

You'll probably never find a 1:1 replacement for youtube, but Nebula has a lot of similar content on it for a reasonable price.

I mostly don't need a 1:1 replacement, just great content. There is more great content added in a day than there are hours - even if I watch on 2x speed. Note that I reduced this great content as opposed to the junk and there is still more than enough. Just give me some of that content and I'm happy. (junk vs great is in the eye of the beholder)
