Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

Yes, you have to be a member to watch the rest of the episodes, but this is easily one of the best reality TV shows I have ever seen. It's all in on the capitalist exploitation side of reality TV, and that's what does it. Pirate the rest of the show or something, IDK, it's just that good

The concept? Two college humor writers pitch a game show where they do crazy challenges to pay off their college debt. The twist? These are two long time friends, and they're the ones giving the challenges to each other. This is one of the most clever pieces of anti-capitalist media I've ever watched. I'm not gonna go too far in the spoilers, but I'm just going to say that Grant and Ally save their friendship by the end of it. I mention it because the show is almost unbearable to watch unless you know that it's going to end well.

These friends giving each other extraordinarily debasing tasks in a battle to pay of their student loans is just such an amazing allegory for this
