This cutting-edge theme unveils the relationship of deaf people with digital media that privileges video, an element closely related to the cultural artefact of deaf people (Strobel, 2016) and values sign language, which is the visual experience. It aims to explore the themes produced, exclusively in Brazilian sign language (Libras), by deaf people on YouTube channels. The research methodology has a qualitative approach of the descriptive type (Gil, 2002) and uses, for data collection, the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses method (Prisma; Page et al., 2021) with the snowball sampling type (Vinuto, 2014). We identified 913 videos uploaded on 11 Brazilian deaf authors’ YouTube channels over nine years between 2006, the year the oldest channel analysed was created, and 2021. The contributing authors to the analysis were mainly Festa (2012), Burgess and Green (2009/2009), Coruja (2017) and Medeiros and Rocha (2018). The analysis of the videos allowed identifying more videos with financial themes and observing that the videos with more views are about sign language, identity and deaf culture. O tema deste estudo é a produção e a autoria de pessoas surdas na internet, especificamente, na plataforma de compartilhamento de vídeos e rede social YouTube, no Brasil. Trata-se de um tema de vanguarda e desvela a relação dos surdos com uma mídia digital que privilegia o vídeo, elemento este que está intimamente relacionado ao artefato cultural do povo surdo (Strobel, 2016), e valoriza a língua de sinais, que é a experiência visual. O objetivo é investigar os temas produzidos, exclusivamente em língua brasileira de sinais (Libras), por pessoas surdas nos canais do YouTube. A metodologia da pesquisa possui uma abordagem qualitativa do tipo descritiva (Gil, 2002) e utiliza, para a coleta de dados, o método dos principais itens para relatar revisões sistemáticas e meta-análises (Prisma; Page et al., 2021) com o tipo de amostragem de bola de neve (Vinuto, 2014). Foram identificados 913 vídeos postados em 11 canais de autores surdos brasileiros no YouTube, ao longo de nove anos, entre 2006, ano da criação do canal mais antigo analisado, e 2021. Os autores que contribuíram com a análise foram principalmente Festa (2012), Burgess e Green (2009/2009), Coruja (2017) e Medeiros e Rocha (2018). A partir da análise dos vídeos, foi possível identificar uma maior quantidade de vídeos com temas financeiros e observar que os vídeos com mais visualizações são sobre a língua de sinais, a identidade e a cultura surda.
