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'm really kinda confused about who is watching 4 hours of one person on a topic like youtube plagiarism without getting bored.

Do people watch these on 2x speed? 3x? Just download the audio and listen like it's a podcast or lecture?

Who is this for? What is the purpose or goal of it? Does anyone truly give a shit about plagiarism on youtube other than people making youtube content?

Real questions. Not rhetorical or irony poisoned. I do not get it.

I'm mostly in the "listen like it's a podcast or lecture" camp. During this video I've: played satisfactory, played factorio, done prep for a TTRPG campaign I wanna run, and walked my dog.

This one's below par for HBomb. Like I've re-listened to his early stuff dunking on Sargon and The Golden One dozens of times, I've re-listened to some of his more recent ones like Flat Earth two or three times, but this one will probably be a skip for me in the future. He would benefit from giving himself a hard per-upload time limit and not exceeding it no matter what.

maybe this is just my brain being shit but i cant listen to people talk and work on other things at the same time.

I can play video games but that's about it, and even then anything that requires reading or more than an instant's thought will cause me to derail.

I can listen to riveting lectures while doing routine housechores and casual podcasts while focusing on some important task, but I can't do the riveting lectures and important task at the same time.
