Ahoy's videos are so good. It sucks that it takes him so long to upload, but I really enjoy the high quality.

I know he has 1.75 million subscribers, but in the context of YouTube and its billions of users he's such a hidden gem. All his videos have such high production value. He's been incredibly consistent over the years, transcending every fad that YouTube goes through. He also composes the music for his videos.
Finding such quality creators is so rare.
Go check out posy. I put him in the same category with just a little more cheek.
I love posy. I will happily watch him talk about an old stereo system from 30 years ago for 20 min.
I had no idea about the composing, that's so cool. I know he was just trending, but another hidden gem is Lemmino. I feel like his latest video blew up though. It's frustrating because I feel like any time I find a good creator, I blow through all of their videos, and then I realize they only upload a few times a year.
Lemmino and Ahoy share a very similar space in my mental filing system. They upload pretty infrequently, but man are the videos worth the wait
I wish there was a platform that only consisted of thoughtful content like this. I would pay a subscription if I knew it was going to be clickbait and junk free, even if it meant significantly fewer uploads.
There's Nebula.tv with a fairly decent roster of creators.
I understand where you're coming from. It's why I deeply care about my YouTube recommendations and put so much effort into it.
Y'know for the amount of ads I've seen for Nebula and CuriosityStream it hadn't even crossed my mind. Thanks.
This video is excellent. Maybe my favorite that Ahoy has put out. The guy's attention to detail, respect for the original process, and presentation style are all off the chart. The same can be said about most of his videos. He's a total pro and does not fuck around when it comes to the quality of his productions. The only downside is that he puts out like 1 video every 6 months. Not really a problem given the high quality, but I would watch infinity of this guy's content if it was available
Saw this a while back. Pretty cool that the original artist of the burger posted a comment too!
This is a fascinating watch, go do it.
absolutely! anyone with a soul left (and memories of the amazing amiga) will smile and tear up watching this video. well worth 30 minutes of your ilfe.
Saw this, would recommend!
Thank you for sharing this. Never heard of Ahoy and am 100% a fan now. thanks again!
Never heard of this youtuber until today. This was a great watch. Gonna now subscribe to him.
