A lot of real stuff like original metalworking and fishing channels were hit by policy changes that considered them violent or sexual, so this is what we were left with. Almost every trustworthy channel is the only guy autistic enough to actually make his videos in the first place, so when there are lots of copycats you know something is wrong.
