How can I trust this list when it doesn't include The Tech Lead?

Because it is not a programming/educational channel, it is a comedy/satire channel. I can not take a channel seriously with titles like "Why I am richer than you"

He's just a more sarcastic Stefan Mischook. Some people enjoy laughing and learning at the same time, and humor is subjective.

Case in point: "Uncle" Bob Martin's "Clean Code" video course is probably 50% made up of drawn-out skits mocking people who don't agree with him. I don't enjoy his teaching style or agree with all of his opinions, but he's a hero to millions of other people who do.

Yeah his recent shtick is him being a millionaire. But a few months ago he used to do more videos on more interesting topics like being a developer, breaking into the industry, etc. I hope he goes back to that soon

But thanks for the comment! I'm a huge fan of the content you put out, including your YouTube videos and full courses

haha I considered adding the Tech Lead, but his more recent videos at least have been more personal than programming

Apparently he's in a scandal right now with another YouTuber where he's basically redirecting people from what they thought was the YouTuber's algorithm course website to his algorithm course website.
