Bro, every individual's opinion is different. You can't say that a particular youtuber is better than another. I asked you all to just share your opinions.

Yes i can say It

It is not a opinion, It is a fact, It is objetive

the quality of the ben finegold comments is superior .

Daniel King is one the best too ,i forgot to mention It 

It is like if you compare classic music with rap , or trap or reggaeton.

Isn't that exactly the same as the statement at the start of this thread?

I don't particularly care for Finegold, just because he seems to play random moves in the opening, then beat his opponents in the mid game, because he is a GM and they are not. It is more entertaining, because he sometimes gets into a position that even he can't win, but it isn't as instructive.

ChessNetwork is the best pure chess streamer.

Is there a way to see what Gotham was talking about yesterday? You betcha. What sort of junk are your opponents throwing at you today? That’s what Levy was promoting yesterday.

Levy thinks he’s funny.

Agadmator doesn’t know he’s funny.

Eric Rosen is the true comic.

Imho,

Levy is great.  But there's a TON of folks out there who are also great.  There's some rather popular ones I don't care for.  I would put Ben Finegold in that category.  But lots of other folks like him and there doesn't have to be a concensus.

If you're looking for Entertainment:

Levy, Eric Rosen, Hikaru, et al...

Education:

John Bartholomew, Daniel Naroditsky, all the Chess Dojo guys, this list is too long to type but those are the most valuable ones imo.

Watching Chess:

Pick any GM doing Banter Blitz or sadly, just stick with re-runs of the few BB videos done by Daniel Dubov.  Hands down the best content with the worst production value ever! (his internet in Russia is terrible and equipment available is no so great either.  But he makes up for it 100x with pure gold content!) and omg is he funny (without trying).

Yasser Seirawan is better then any third rate IM. You can learn from one of the best players of all time, or you can be amused by some chucklehead, your choice.

Once people turned to late night show comedians for reliable news. Now they turn to chess streamers for comedy.

IMO -- and only IMO -- chess content creators forget that you can have one of two things in the forefront at any given time: the necessary information, or the ego. I don't care about who puts the information there. The less of them the better. And if there's naturally more of them, then all the worse. Just how I feel about it. The YouTuber with the least amount of presence and the best information would be the top choice.

Another vote for ChessNetwork.

But my favourite is Andras Toth ("ChessCoach Andras" on YouTube). If you're an intermediate level player looking to improve I think he's excellent. He's a professional chess coach with a lot of experience and it shows.
