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.

  • I usually both search on Google withe site:hexbear.net and on Hexbear itself. On Google I am moreso looking for keywords. Hexbear weights upvotes more, and oftentimes a good effortpost has received a lot of upvotes, where Google gives more of everything, but both needs a lot of finagling to be useful.
  • Hexbear due to familiarity.
  • I'm usually posting from phone, so unless it's an effortpost I stay there. For a good infogathering it's on pc tho.
  • Most info needs reformatting (adding linktext for example) so it's rarely something I think of. When it's just a quick message I just link the person to the thread. I always rephrase if I'm making a new effortpost.
  • If I make new effortpost yeah, otherwise I usually just repost the info as is - with minor tweaks.
  • Yes! Good formatting is a lifesaver
