I don't like his videos anymore. He's started being extremely dramatic with them. Everything is stretched, he belabors points repeatedly, and they all have at least one (sometimes multiple) moments where "all seems lost, what ever will I do, this is a disaster."
He was more fun when he just did the chemistry. Which is a subject I find fascinating mostly because it makes no damn sense to me. If someone else has figured out the process with steps of what to add when, along with other steps like stirring or heating, sure I can "do chemistry." And it might even make a tiny bit of sense. But the chemistry, no that's basically just magic as far as I know.
I liked when he did chemistry, and not "it was a dark time in the lab, my hopes and dreams had been dashed to PIECES by a FAILED REACTION and I was DOOMED to start all over."
Oh well. It was fun before he started going viral.

If you're looking for drier, more serious chemistry content, you should check out Periodic Videos, NurdRage, and Applied Science. NileRed has always been pretty overly dramatic, and a tad repetitive though, IMO. It's why I watch most of his stuff on 2x speed. :P

I rolled my eyes is what happened soon after.
It's tedious. The content is actually good, the camera work and editing is well done, but the script needs work.

I like it even with dramatization. As a maker myself I understand that he can see specific situations as unrecoverable or project being doomed. I had this with my projects too. That was until I found workaround or how to steer the project in new direction. I believe him when he says that he thoight he will hae to start all over because those are my feelings too whe I'm working on something and it screws up (or rather I screw it up).
I also absolutely ok with dramatization in his video. Probably because for me it feels geniune too. He definitely record video first and then record text/audio with explanations later, but I can...
I also absolutely ok with dramatization in his video. Probably because for me it feels geniune too. He definitely record video first and then record text/audio with explanations later, but I can relate with his feeling when something can go wrong because you doing it the first time, or when something go wrong and you not sure why.
I have zero expirience with chemistry and Im quite sure that Im target audience of his videos ).
I'm his target audience too, definitely! I know very little from school (oh, it's 20 years since my last chemistry class) and many things he does is like a wizardry to me. But he can describe...
I'm his target audience too, definitely! I know very little from school (oh, it's 20 years since my last chemistry class) and many things he does is like a wizardry to me. But he can describe every step so well that even if I don't really comorehend what is going on, I don't feel left out. He is great presenter. And dramatization... When he worked with gold (making pink gold) a few months back, I could totally believe his fear for spending a lot of money on gold and maybe not even making the final thing out of it. Don't get me wrong, I believe he can and do overdramatize here and there, but I believe there is also genuine feeling behind his fears.
I have just watched the video on Odysee (a bit worse but ad-free alternative to Youtube that quite a few creators use as kinda backup). Never thought you could make concentrated cinnamon flavor...
I have just watched the video on Odysee (a bit worse but ad-free alternative to Youtube that quite a few creators use as kinda backup). Never thought you could make concentrated cinnamon flavor oil from styrofoam. It was great to watch, but I won't even try to mask that I can't understand 90% of the processes.

Ah, so AntsCanada but with chemistry.
You don't need to cliffhang me in the middle of a video dude, I'm already watching.
Wow, that's actually the exact reason I can't stand AntsCanada. Everything about that channel would be interesting ... except for Everything Is Drama!

I rolled my eyes is what happened soon after.

He's also on Nebula.
