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.

Even the title sounds kind of silly. Didn't they just measure a gravity wave for the first time like ten years ago?
I gotta watch it all still. But one thing that caught my ear was something I came across studying physics in higher level education too. Or any higher level subject for that matter
The general population knows only the basics, which were established hundreds of years ago. Enthusiasts learn in some more detail and complexity, but it's still the highly established explainers they have access to eg. for physics: quantum mechanics and relativity which are decades old
But recent physics in academia and research is still being figured out and taught to the most dedicated. So a very small set of people know or care about it, and understand its importance. Stuff of few years or decades past
It's like how people think history is just like Sparta then Alexander then Napoleon then Hitler then Civ 6 because they saw it on YouTube because they love history. That's not exactly historians really do or talk about
