French side of Youtube

Il paraît que ça manque de recommandations de chaînes francophones sur youtube qui ne datent pas de 2010.

Sans prétention de complétude, voilà mes recos de youtubeurs (chaînes actives et pas craignos) :

Linguisticae - Chaîne de vulgarisation sur la linguistique en général et souvent la langue française en particulier. Membre des linguistes atterrées, collectif auteur du tract "Le français va très bien, merci". Rageux contre l'Académie Française, comme nous toustes.

L'Histoire nous le dira - Youtubeur historien (et québécois), chaîne très riche avec des séries sur des pans complets de l'histoire (occidentale majoritairement).

Nota Bene - Pour rester dans le thème histoire, la chaîne de vulgarisation historique la plus connue du youtube francophone. Travail de recherche bien sérieux (grosse équipe) derrière chaque vidéo.

G Milgram - Mon youtubeur préféré du moment. Sa mission : s'attaquer à l'emprise des modes de pensée pseudo-scientifiques et anti-scientifiques. Tout est sérieux, sourcé, et fiable, et présenté avec humour. Tu veux savoir pourquoi l'état français utilise l'argent du contribuable pour mettre de la potion bleue à base de fémur de geai dans les éoliennes ? C'est par ici.

Scilabus - Youtubeuse sympa qui depuis ses propres études supérieures en physique a monté sa chaîne pour expliquer ou démystifier des phénomènes du quotidien par des expériences et explications scientifiques. Elle enseigne à Polytechnique Montréal aujourd'hui.

Notseriou's - Chroniques cinéma humoristiques, parfois bien nostalgique (Arthur et les Minimoys a un spinoff officiel et c'est un film d'horreur ??)

Joueur du Grenier - Oups ma liste se transforme en liste de 2010.... N'empêche que JDG est toujours là, toujours sympa. Thème jeux vidéos.

LinksTheSun - Pareil, ça c'est de la chaîne durable depuis bien 15 ans. Films, livres, pop culture....

Le Fossoyeur de Films - Allez, une dernière et après on arrête l'archéologie. Chroniques cinéma, et comme pour ces trois dernières chaînes, a grandi avec ses créateurs et se prend moins au sérieux qu'à ses débuts.

David Castello-Lopes - Plus journaliste que youtubeur, mais si vous voulez plus de tubes par l'auteur de "je possède des thunes", c'est par là. Voir aussi sa chronique "Suisse ?" sur 52" RTS, "Intéressant" sur Arte et "Historiquement vôtre" sur Europe 1

Monsieur Phi - Docteur en philosophie qui vulgarise très bien ce sujet pas forcément facile d'accès.

@logogreffe je crois que tu cherchais

Chers trans de france, bébé (moi) fait une crise de dysphorie (en partie parce que) il arrive pas à trouver un binder qui lui va et il arrive pas à être masc. Des conseils?

his swagless looks and cringe fail personality have captivated me

Thank you very much
