Here are my favorite YouTube channels at this writing, with many but not all focused on vintage technology. Lots of nerdy guys here!
The first three I love so much that I send them monthly funding via Patreon:
-
TechMoan
TechMoan – wonderful look at vintage consumer home entertainment devices brought back to life, along with some new gadgets, with Mat in Scotland; I am so happy when a segment ends with the muppets! Here’s Mat’s website and his Patreon page.
-
The 8-Bit Guy
Technology Connections
The 8-Bit Guy – David Murray is a fellow in Texas who likes to restore old home computers and the like, along with electronic keyboards and more; here’s David’s website and his Patreon page.
