I cut the cord on cable years ago, and have been a premium YT member pretty much every since (I’m not a fan of ads.) These are some of my favorite YT content creators…Not all programming related, but all great in the content they provide.

Anthony is an excellent teacher of all things Go. He is especially helpful teaching you how to think like a Go programmer, which you'll need if you're coming from another language.

@RobertElderSoftware

Robert's "Favorite Linux Command" shorts started coming up on my feed a while back, and I absolutely loved them. Eventually regular videos came up in my feed and, regardless of the topic, I've enjoyed them all.

#linux, #software

Fireship

@Fireship

If you don't know who Fireship is, then you've been missing out. Possibly my favorite developer on YouTube. His content is pure gold!

If you like to think, then you need Veritasium on your list.

Ryan does an awesome job explaining whatever it is he's talking about, be it Go Channels or something more high-level, like microservices vs monoliths.

CGP Grey

@CGPGrey

It all started with Hexagons are the Bestagons. It showed up in my feed one day and I was hooked. CGP teaches with stories, and man, he is one hell of a story teller! 🐝

@NetNinja

A channel chock full of great programming tutorials relevant to front and back end developers. Mr. Ninja does a great job of explaining topics in detail, over the course of 5-10 videos on average.
