Wouldn’t it be easier to list ones who aren’t overrated?
I really don’t understand the popularity of the “big” YouTubers. PewDiePie being the prime example from a few years ago, though I don’t think he’s still making videos.
Pew is still making content but it’s more vlogs about him trying to stop being a hyped up youtuber and to find work life balance while now also raising a tiny bebe.
So he moved to Japan so that people wouldn’t recognise him as much, started making friends and is now living quite a normal life to what he used to do.
It would probably make more sense for them to be evaluated in comparison to similar offerings withing the respective “genres” which would be hard for those that don’t fit in to neatly defined formats, but it seems that most do.
I couldn’t watch PewDiePie, it’s damned irritating, but it’s an entire format and style of video that some people like and he seems presumably to be the king of it and is widely emulated so it would be saying something then if you consider him overrated within that context. I couldn’t venture an opinion though because I would just never watch that kind of video.
While I dislike PewDie as an adult, had I discovered him at the age of 13, I’d have absolutely loved him.
I feel like people frequently forget that internet demographics are very unique compared to the overall demographics of the whole population. It is definitely easier and more fun to spend lots of time on here while you’re still very young, and generally have more free time and open curiosity.

Never use to watch him, but actually enjoying his content as of late.
Edit: probably because he’s an internet goofball around my age.
That actually sounds pretty cool for him.

Jenna Marbles was genuinely a great youtuber.
I feel like most youtubers are pretty obvious after money.
