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.

but I wonder how many black hexbears have left the site in the past because of similar issues

a lot left before the move here sadly, i think we used to have more back on reddit ironically.

This is just a thought, feel free to tell me it's a dumbass idea, but what if we had an emoji specifically for POC hexbears to use in race-related discussions

no its a great idea.

i also wish hexbear would treat black people they way indigenous people or trans people are treated on here. theres a respect there that there isnt for black culture, theres also this understanding that you dont have to understand something to respect it. black culture isnt seen as something worthy of respect. people on here will argue that aspects of black culture specifically are wrong and anything they do deem acceptable or fashionable "doesnt belong to black people" and they are free to take. we are dissected cut up into bite sized pieces. not just here everywhere. im not even gonna bring up what that guy said before he deleted his comment im just gonna block him and move on.

also thanks umbravivi love seeing you around.
