Раз уж зашёл разговор про YouTube, я хотел было рассказать вам про свои подписки, но потом подумал, что каких-нибудь Slow Mo Guys или Доктора Дью и так все знают.
Поэтому вот вам из моих подписок каналы либо малопопулярные, либо узкой тематики:
Виталий Галайчук (рус) — автор летает на планерах без мотора (их поднимают самолётом, а затем он лавирует в воздушных потоках). Очень атмосферные и крутые съёмки.
Luke Towan (англ) — автор — мастер по созданию диорам (миниатюрных трёхмерных моделей участка местности). Показывает процесс создания, залипательно и медитативно.
Человек с Земли (рус) — украинский видеоблогер, занимающийся квадрокоптерами. Очень красиво делает ролики, отличный саунд-дизайн.
Алексей Макаренков (рус) — раньше вёл канал как сотрудник компании 4game, а сейчас свой отдельный. Про видеоигры и игровую индустрию. Хорошо рассказывает, интересно, и явно в теме.
Numberfile (англ) — автор ходит к разным математикам, и они рассказывают ему о любопытных задачах и других вещах из мира математики. Для любителей чисел, много необычных и удивительных сюжетов.
Dustin Penner (англ) — плотник и столяр, делает на станках и руками разные конструкции из дерева.
Гуляйнен (рус) — парни из Петербурга катают на велосипедах по красивым местам. Очень молодой канал, желаю ему всяческих успехов и развития. Это они, кстати, авторы проекта "Скретч-карта Ленобласти".
Лёша Корепанов (рус) — чисто разговорный блог для начинающих программистов и тех, кто хочет ими стать. Автор русский, но живёт в Нидерландах и работает программистом уже много лет, делится своим опытом.
Рыбалка с Romario Agro (рус) — медитативный блог о рыбалке. Автор выезжает на лодке один в красивые места, там рыбачит, готовит походную еду итд. Хотя последние месяцы что-то его не видно.
AnikFPV (рус/англ) — опытный русскоязычный FPV-пилот тестирует дроны и связанные с этим вещи, участвует в соревнованиях, ездит летать в красивые места. Что-то только для тех, кто этим занимается сам, но что-то вполне себе интересно для широкой публики.
Буду рад, если в комментариях поделитесь своими малоизвестными или узкотематическими подписками!

During out talks with F-Droid users at FOSDEM26 we were baffled to learn most were relieved that #Google has canceled their plans to lock-down #Android.
Why baffled? Because no such thing actually happened, the plans announced last August are still scheduled to take place. We see a battle of PR campaigns and whomever has the last post out remains in the media memory as the truth, and having journalists just copy/paste Google posts serves no one.
But Google said… Said what? That there’s a magical “advanced flow”? Did you see it? Did anyone experience it? When is it scheduled to be released? Was it part of Android 16 QPR2 in December? Of 16 QPR3 Beta 2.1 last week? Of Android 17 Beta 1? No? That’s the issue… As time marches on people were left with the impression that everything was done, fixed, Google “wasn’t evil” after all, this time, yay!
While we all have bad memories of “banners” as the dreaded ad delivery medium of the Internet, after FOSDEM we decided that we have to raise the issue back and have everyone, who cares about Android as an open platform, informed that we are running out of time until Google becomes the gate-keeper of all users devices.
Hence, the website and starting today our clients, with the updates of F-Droid and F-Droid Basic, feature a banner that reminds everyone how little time we have and how to voice their concerns to whatever local authority is able to understand the dangers of this path Android is led to.
We are not alone in our fight, IzzyOnDroid added a banner too, more #FDroid clients will add the warning banner soon and other app downloaders, like Obtainium, already have an in-app warning dialogue.

Super Bowl Ad TRICKING You Into Welcoming Surveillance State!
During the Super Bowl, you may have seen a commercial for #Amazon’s #Ring “Search Party” feature, which uses an emotional lost-dog story to encourage adoption of participation in what amounts to a widespread neighborhood #surveillance net. Jimmy points out that the ad masks #privacy risks tied to AI-driven #cameras, data sharing, and Amazon’s broader surveillance ecosystem, including concerns about opt-out defaults and government access.
He and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger expand the discussion into a broader critique of social media and smart devices as tools of self-surveillance, suggesting public safety and convenience are being used to justify constant monitoring. Ultimately, it frames the commercial as emblematic of a growing surveillance state presented as benevolent technology.
