This is a tier list of nine of the largest and most active Youtube history channels, based on criticism at r/badhistory and other platforms, and what I consider to be best history Youtuber practice. Channels scored C or D can still be useful for learning history; they just don't do it as well as I think they should. Channels scored E or F should be avoided, in my opinion.
