I understand why some of the ones like methylamine and hydroiodic acid got deleted. But pottasium nitrate? You can buy that at Walmart! There is no reason why it had to be deleted

because of the nanny state mentality,they want to prevent drug making(while Canada is flooded with cheap fentanyl from china) and they want to prevent terrorism,while open our borders to all and sundry.

it stops the lazy and ignorant which is good but when the restrictions go too far it seriously hampers progress for legit students and researchers.

falling leaf stump remover,the easiest source of K nitrate ws put behind the counter as of Jan1 of this year and you need t show gov, ID to buy it.
it's about $16 a pound and some places restrict you to two bottles per visit

the problem obviously is that you can't stop knowledge and if someone really wanted large amounts of potassium nitrates you can get it by synthesizing it from scratch.

Government restrictions defeated by a library card.

Look up what a Gong farmer is and why they became so well paid.

Old piss was big business at one time.

Nile is in it now as a business, and no disrespect to him for that, but he has to think as a business first and foremost which means reducing any risk and ensuring he has a very stable platform to build on.

Content creaters should question their business model if it depends on such an unreliable/whimsical platform.

We, as customers, vote by choosing where we watch the content that we like. It would not be so bad to promote the popularity of other video sharing platforms.

Pretty much every "science" channel once big enough becomes like that, the reason is simple, most of the audience is dumb like a rock, so to get views you need dumb videos.
Look at Grant thomsom the king of random, I subscribed to his channel after his fifth video, he made good content, well thought projects that needed many tries and development, but once he grew enough, to get even more subscribers and views he just focused on stupid stuff, and people sadly like that. We are a minority, if you want to live out of YouTube reveniews you need a big audience, we simply are not enough, but there are countless idiots or very uncultured people.
I mean, nurdrage synthesizes, 30k views at most, shattering a heart frozen in liquid nitrogen?? Ahhh let the millions of views flow

If you are making a video as an instructional guide you shouldn't be surprised at having a limited audience. You mostly can't put anything that we'd consider useful into 3 or 4 minutes. And that's the kind of video that gets a lot of hits on platforms like YouTube. The video describing how to get thorium from a microwave oven vastly outpaces my own video describing an actual working process to that end. The former is only a few minutes long but mine takes 25 minutes to wrap up. Consequently, I have only about 1.3 k views in more than a year. The fact is, most YouTube viewers aren't looking for a how-to as much as they are looking for quick entertainment. Add to this the desire by authorities to suppress certain knowledge and I'd say that on the whole, we're probably lucky to get the limited number of useful videos that we do.

I was one of the 1.4k viewers and I was impressed by the amount of work you put into the project, your knowledge and skill in carrying it out, and your courage in doing the work in the first place, in view of the dangers. (I kept thinking of what would happen on inhaling a nanogram of thorium oxide dust, for example.)

It was not a small matter, and it will stand the test of time, which most of the microwave videos will not.




Any other SF Bay chemists?

Yes, this is the real reason. Not because people are dumb ;)

"Normal" viewers go to Youtube for entertainment.
We go there to learn.
It would be interesting to know how normal users browse YT compared to a population that is not afraid of 25mn+ videos.

Yeah, may his soul Rest in Peace, but I used to be a big fan of his years ago (and I just recently realized that one of the first few videos that got me into the hobby was made by The BackYardScientist), but as soon as they got huge, it was as if their quality tumbled. I honestly couldn't stand watching most of Thompson's newer content (and still can't watch TBYS's new content without cringing), but I did and still do have massive respect for the both of them. To be fair, it's channels like theirs that get people hooked into the idea of exploring science, although it may not be the best way, it does. My ex used to come to me frequently for my more in-depth explanations to a lot of their videos, and she enjoys me teaching her about it all.

Maybe we sound like boomers, but I guess everyone is introduced differently to science. Some like a simpler experience, some like a detailed experience. I assume that if you're on this board, you like lots of details.

When the channel went down, Explosions and Fire stated that he was not going to restore everything to the new E&F2 channel. He figured that losing a lot of the earlier stuff was not an enormous loss: basically because he had learned so much in the intervening period and that his focus had changed considerably. Also he said that he had not kept accurate backups of the earlier material. Some of it was a bit Jackass anyway.

This is why services like BitChute exist - it wouldn't take much for archives of these 'problematic' videos to be preserved for the future.

Even archive.org for the more notable stuff.

It'd be a damn shame to permanently lose a lot of this media IMO.

The simplest thing to do would be to set the 'problematic' videos to 'private' on YouTube, then the link(s) could be given to those who want to preserve them.

EDIT: If anyone wants a fantastic backup app for YouTube on Android, YouTube Downloader for Android by Dentex (get the link from XDA) works brilliantly.

YouTube-dl is the gold standard on other platforms.
