I am interested in learning more about the influence of social media on the chess community, particularly regarding YouTube content creators. Could you kindly share which chess YouTubers you follow and what you think of their impact on the game? Additionally, I would appreciate any insights on how social media has shaped or influenced your approach to chess.

Thank you for your time and thoughts.

I like both of these equally.

1. Gotham chess - Levi tries for the GM title. Interesting to watch his struggles, victories, and tournament back stories.

2. Chess Dojo - 1. GM and 2 I.M.s share their thoughts, games, and instructional ideas. Lots of very good information here.

I like watching Simon Williams (aka Ginger GM) on his Titled Tuesday videos. They can be a little sweary in places, so not for you if you don't like that kind of thing - but he explains what's going on while playing so it's entertaining and educational.

Gotham Chess going for the GM title
Eric Rosen for Instructional Chess
Agadmator for chess game commentary

I find Hikaru and Magnus's youtube videos not as interesting despite their genius. Some players just aren't meant to be coaches.
