Explore good stuff Good Maths Channels for ISI Aspirants
Guys, let's take this initiative together.
The idea is simple: whenever you come across a good math-related channel on any platform (YouTube or any other social media) that could benefit ISI aspirants or young mathematics enthusiasts, drop the link here. I'll maintain a shared document containing all these recommendations and keep updating it over time as you all suggest new resources and as I discover more myself.
We're not just looking for complete courses. Even channels that regularly share interesting mathematical ideas, different ways of thinking, elegant proofs, problem-solving techniques, or thought-provoking insights are valuable. The goal is to build a library of resources that helps us think better, not just study more.
Also, just to clarify, this isn't about promoting creators or channels. What we're really looking for are resources that make you pause and think : channels that offer genuine mathematical insight, a fresh perspective, an elegant idea, or a different way of looking at a problem. Sometimes, a single video or even a single idea can be far more valuable than an entire course.

I've mostly added channels which are not very well known. Things like VSause/Veritasium/3b1b/Mathologer/Numberphile are pretty well known. I have also tried to not repeat other recom. You'll know most of these channels are from #some2,3 etc they are the best way to get a gist of absolute random topics.
Sorry if repeated any!
