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.

Thumbnail is clickbait in the sense that the video does not address specific instances by specific creators, but is more of a call on everyone to reflect on certain behaviors we might/might not engage with. Just watch the first two minutes if that's all the time you have right now, but do that much at least.

Edit: Some people are taking quotes that the AI has written in a comment and acting as if that’s what’s actually in the video. It’s not. I thought it should be obvious that if you want to critique the video, you have to watch it rather than depend on an AI to to provide a a summary.

Can someone tldw this for me? I feel like she beats around the bush too much and doesnt go for the punches

You'll never make it as a content creator with a handful of concise paragraphs, you need to deep dive with a 40 minute video

That said from what I've briefly engaged with, I have no doubt breadtube is toxic to women

Also she speaks in a very slow and affected manner, which really doesn't help with a media-addled zoomer brain like mine . . .

I watch everything at 2x anyways lol. Sometimes I go down to 1.5x when I want to savour it.

I do 3x. Yes I might have undiagnosed ADHD, why do you ask?

What players let you go that high?

[–] NoGodsNoMasters@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Personally I use an extension, and yeah I go up to 3x pretty regularly, while 2x is basically my absolute minimum for most types of videos lol

Shaun goes alright with the slow talkin'

He does, but it really helps how dry it is. The "affected" part is a poor blend, but it might just be me. She almost sounds like she's doing an asmr video.

"Sexist!"

Fair reaction, but Contra and PT don't sound like that to me. Their speech is emphatic but PT's usually isn't too affected (though some characters are more than others) and Contra's is at least pretty punchy. That one teacher lady doesn't come off that way to me either.

Someone posted an AI summary earlier that got the structure of the essay correct, even if it made the content seem more superficial than it was. You can probably find it in the mod log if you want. I’d still recommended you watch just the first five minutes if you can, though.

yeah i watched the first 10 minutes, i cant say it was a groundbreaking perspective or anything. maybe im just racist against the british
