 Hello and welcome to this thing where I talk about stuff from filmsbychris.com. That's Chris with a K There's a link in the description. I am Chris with a K and today I'm going to talk about People I watch on YouTube not just anyone I watch on YouTube, but people I watch on YouTube that are Linux or open source Related and there's very few that I actually subscribe to And the reason for that is because I just really don't enjoy most of the people out there doing videos on Linux and so I just wanted to give you guys a Few not even a handful of recommendations to check out if you haven't already and one of the reasons I don't subscribe to a lot of the People out there on YouTube they're talking about Linux is because I find their videos This guy's how I'll mean pointless now a lot of most YouTube videos out there That have lots of views that are about Linux are oh, let me give you an overview of this distro I'm gonna give you a review of this distro. I'm gonna try this distro today Let me talk about this distro or they just talk about news stuff on distro. I do subscribe to Brian Lunduk I'm not necessarily Recommending him. I disagree with a lot of stuff. He says but I find what he says interesting But again, he just talks about Linux and that's nothing. I don't need people to talk to me about Linux I don't need people to review a Linux distro. They're free. I'll download one and try it there live CDs I can pop it in any machine Give it a try without committing so I really don't don't care about that stuff. What I'm interested is people who actually show me Software that I may not know about on a Linux machine or or how to do something Or some hardware that works with the Linux, you know operating system Linux kernel and Really, there's three names on YouTube that I recommend only two that I actually subscribe to one that I used to but I don't anymore And let me give you those names is Luke Smith who I've been subscribed to for maybe six months now and I believe is a viewer of mine So hi Luke and Arthur reader who is also a subscriber of mine I believe he's commented I cut my videos and I've been subscribed to him for years and Then someone who I used to be subscribed to but I don't anymore is got bled to And I believe he watches my videos as well and sorry. I'm not subscribed to you anymore Let me start off with that. Why am I not subscribed to got bled to anymore? It's a personal opinion and I know I'm gonna say this I'm gonna get a lot of people rain comments is At least back in the day and I did recently watch some of his videos And he doesn't seem to do it quite as much anymore is He curses a lot and I personally just don't enjoy listening to people curse a lot, you know Just in their random talk and again, that's my own personal opinion if you don't mind that I I do recommend him besides that, you know, just make sure your kids aren't around and that you don't mind hearing that and again That's just my personal opinion. That's why I stop subscribing to him, but his videos are great He does stuff on software and on Unscripting which are great and I do go and watch his videos, you know from time to time I just don't subscribe to me anymore. And again, that's just a personal thing Got blood to you do great videos. Don't don't Don't be mad at me for for that, you know, a lot people think that's nothing and I just I'm not gonna talk about that anymore I just don't enjoy listening to people curse going on from that Arthur reader does curse occasionally Arthur cut it out No, but um, he doesn't do it a whole lot, but his videos are good He doesn't post a whole lot. In fact, I think there was a year or two there where he didn't really post any But he's been posting, you know, one every couple of weeks now and his videos are again on software He likes to use and then sometimes he's been reviewing some cameras recently that he's gotten So I definitely check him out but someone who I've really enjoyed lately and I just you know started subscribing to him a couple months ago is is Luke Smith Luke Smith. He's the reason I started using i3 window manager Which I love he does great videos on configuring software for that he has a lot of Packages or scripts and configuration files. He's put up online for you to use and then sometimes he just does videos where he talks and What again is not necessarily something I normally look for in this feels a lot of times when he's talking He's not necessarily talking about Linux videos So so just be aware he talks about things that are just his points of view And I enjoy listening to what he has to say But mainly I go to his videos for you know his recommendations on software and there's been a number of things like recently I started using a image viewer that he talked about called xx IV I don't know if there's a way you're supposed to pronounce that but it's sx IV It should be in your repositories and actually start using that as a thumbnail viewer for a script I wrote to watch YouTube videos So again Those are three guys. I do recommend that actually show you how to do stuff in Linux. They don't just talk about Linux You know years ago. I subscribed to and I don't think he does YouTube videos anymore What was the guy's name? He did? Today in Linux was that the name of the show Where he talked about news in Linux and I watched him for a while. Why can't I remember that guy's name? Anyway, he did good videos, but again, I really don't care for people talking about I get you know I have news feeds I can see news updates and so when I'm talking about recommendations I'm giving to you guys on people to view on YouTube. It's usually people who actually teach you stuff kind of like my tutorials I This is kind of a I don't want to say a sore subject for me. I get it people I just look at some of these channels who have they have hundreds of thousands of views on their videos And they don't really teach you anything They just talk about what's in the news or talk about what's going on with the Linux and which is fine I just don't find that as useful as videos that actually teach you how to do stuff And lots of times these videos these people who do videos on how to do stuff how to write scripts how to configure stuff How to use software they usually have very few views and I get it, you know talking about links in general might be more entertaining and Someone I do subscribe to again I'm not recommending as far as my viewers and I'm again. I'm recommending people who show you how to do stuff Gardner the Linux gamer. I Subscribe to him. I don't watch all his videos and a lot of it's just talking about what's going on in Linux and his viewpoints Which is great But my recommendations are people who actually teach you how to do stuff and it just makes me sad that that these channels Don't get nearly as many views as someone who just talks about stuff You know, I find people who teach you stuff more useful But then again when they're teaching you stuff, they're usually very specific if you're not looking to Learn how to do that specific thing the video is not interesting to you where people are just talking about stuff in general Are gonna hit a more of a broad scale when it comes to people who are interested in those videos Where I'm interested in those topics not as interested it as I am in something else But there's more people who are interested in those topics. So Again, the three names I recommend when it comes to learning how to do stuff in Linux and again Scripting, you know programming in general configuring or usage of software open-source software free software on a Linux operating system Luke Smith Arthur reader whose channel I think is called off Arthur sucks and got bled to Check out those guys if you are looking for channels That I feel are somewhat similar to mine where they actually teach you some sort of scripting or go over how software works in the Free and open-source world if you have any recommendations on channels I should check out if you have a channel and you post videos Unlinks even even if you just you're one of those people who talks about links. I'll be glad to check it out Let me know in the comments below, but definitely if you have a channel where you go over Scripting or programming or configuring or usage of software in Linux Preferably free and or open-source software I would love to check it out because I would love to have more channel channels to check out but definitely Let me know down in the comments especially if you are doing videos that I would definitely be interested in again anything in that area of Subjects it would be I really wish that I knew more C programming my best friend James is a C programmer, but he doesn't live near me Otherwise I'd be picking his brain more and anytime I sit down to do see it I'm at that point in my life where I'm very comfortable with what I can do I know a few programming I do almost everything I do either in bash or JavaScript. Oh, no, he uses JavaScript I get a lot of people, you know when it comes to scripting language and when it comes to any language people complain about You know different languages if it's not the language they use, but um, I Definitely would like to learn more about C. I just every time I sit down do is like well I can already do this in bash. I can already do this in JavaScript I can already do this in in Python, which I barely use Python anymore and It's just hard to learn something new when you don't need to when I was coming through and learning the programming languages I'm I currently know it's to accomplish test to to learn how to do something But it's hard to learn a new programming language when you already know how to do it in one, but anyway Again, I do thank you for subscribing to my channel here and going to my website films by Chris calm That's Chris with a K link in the description Go ahead and check that out and again check out Arthur reader got blood to Luke Smith You know watch a couple of videos and you like them subscribe to them And if you guys are watching this video hey guys Thanks for watching and keep doing your videos because I do enjoy them and I hope that you all have a great day and Yeah, that's it. Have a great day. Bye
