Based on what he's said elsewhere, it isn't "caring too much" that's the issue, it's just his style. Scott Manley isn't any less enthusiastic about space or SpaceX, but his style is a lot less 'hyper'.

Maybe a better comparison would be that Everyday Astronaut's style is a lot like 'new YouTube', fast paced, with a strong emphasis on being exciting etc, including the stereotypical big YouTuber slick studio setup etc.

Scott Manley's style is more of 'old YouTube' (fits given how long he's been doing things), a more casual and slow paced but still informative style in a sort of standard framework that isn't all too flashy, just casually recorded from his room.

Personally I too prefer Scott Manley's style over EA's, although I'll still watch EA for interesting enough content. With Scott's videos I can watch them essentially whenever I see them, while with EA's videos I feel like I can only enjoy them when I'm feeling energetic, as otherwise the style feels kind of draining.

In the end though, it's down to personal preference.
