"30-Day Challenge" End Here. And here is the full list of channels + a quick explanation.

Hey everyone, I’m going to put a pause on the 30-Day Challenge. I read the comments on my last post (Day 15), and I hear you. A lot of people pointed out that the writing felt like AI, and some felt the "spirit" of the challenge had changed. I want to address that honestly. First, I want to clarify one thing: **The curation was 100% me.** Finding these channels, sorting through them, and watching the videos to decide if they were worth your time—that was all manual work. I actually tried asking AI to "make a list of 30 padel channels," and it failed miserably. It just loops the same 5 big channels over and over. Finding the hidden gems required digging through 100+ channels manually, which I did myself. Sorted them with different languages, and pick the best with English, all did myself. **So, why did I use AI for the writing?** Honestly? Because I’m exhausted. I’m based in Europe, and if you noticed my posting times, I usually post in the middle of the night (my time) after a long day of work. Writing a fresh, perfectly grammatically correct description for every channel became a huge energy drain. So yes, I used AI to summarize my thoughts and format them to save time. I always checked the output to make sure it was accurate, but I understand that it ended up feeling "robotic" or "low effort" to some of you. It wasn't my intention to be lazy, but I underestimated the workload of filtering 100+ channels and writing about them daily. Since the community seems a bit tired of the format, I’ll stop the daily updates. However, I don't want to gatekeep the research I did. **Here is the rest of the list (Day 16 - Day 30):** (Note: I can't share the Google Sheet because it links to my personal email, so I’ve attached screenshots of my list below. Hope you find some cool channels in there!) https://preview.redd.it/scrofjcoc4jg1.png?width=630&format=png&auto=webp&s=26ad4ca8a3e3109eaab77d2dce1ec57b6bb51618 https://preview.redd.it/d5ykev9qc4jg1.png?width=612&format=png&auto=webp&s=cd7327b6d59720610cc56048e65b66c1aa7275ce **For those who missed the earlier parts:** * **Day 1 - 7:** [Link to Week 1 Thread](https://www.google.com/url?sa=E&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reddit.com%2Fr%2Fpadel%2Fcomments%2F1qnvfpu%2Fa_30day_challenge_on_padel_youtuber_spotlight_i%2F%3Futm_source%3Dshare%26utm_medium%3Dweb3x%26utm_name%3Dweb3xcss%26utm_term%3D1%26utm_content%3Dshare_button) * **Day 8 - 14:** [Link to Week 2 Thread](https://www.google.com/url?sa=E&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reddit.com%2Fr%2Fpadel%2Fcomments%2F1qv4bcr%2F30day_challenge_day_8_padel_youtuber_spotlight%2F%3Futm_source%3Dshare%26utm_medium%3Dweb3x%26utm_name%3Dweb3xcss%26utm_term%3D1%26utm_content%3Dshare_button) * **Day 15:** [Link to Week 3 Start](https://www.google.com/url?sa=E&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reddit.com%2Fr%2Fpadel%2Fcomments%2F1r2asb6%2F30day_youtuber_challenge_day_15day21_padel%2F%3Futm_source%3Dshare%26utm_medium%3Dweb3x%26utm_name%3Dweb3xcss%26utm_term%3D1%26utm_content%3Dshare_button) Thanks to everyone who discussed in the early days. I’ll go back to just being a regular member of the sub for a while. See you on the court! 🎾
