What tech/science communicators do you follow that you feel are unbiased?

I'm not sure what is going on, but it feels like everyone that I've followed or enjoyed watching now has huge leanings/kickbacks from companies they seem to be promoting on their platforms. Specifically space news recently has really shown the bias with everyone foaming at the mouth about how brilliant SpaceX is when they decide to pivot to the moon instead of mars or adding safety measures like water to a launchpad which has been done for decades.

I think my breaking point was a recent video of someone walking around, what seemed to be a campus, explaining the server/hosting logistics and technical aspects but then pivoted into how great it was when everything they were saying seemed to be a negative. Followed all the relevant links to the person and of course they work for google, so it's some kinda "non-mainstream advertising" in the guise of actual knowledge.

I think the only two individuals I watch anymore are Anton and Fran. Hell, some of Neil Degrasse Tyson's shit has been interesting me just because of my lack of content and I'm unfortunately someone who just can't stand the guy (but I'll admit I've seen some videos lately and he's made good points while calling out bad actors in question).
