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 recently rewatched episode 1 after binging the original trilogy. I went in completely unjaded, determined to give the film a fair viewing without all the RLM Mr Plinket/general internet hate poisoning the experience.
Within about t the first 5 mins I was "oh boy"-ing at all the horrendous racial stereotypes. The trade federation, the gungans, watto. And then to add on top of that the absolutely terrible directing. So many scenes looked like they just one-and-doned it. Like, George, could you maybe get a few more takes of the "Yippee" scene? That can't be the best you got.
It's a shame, because the style is incredible, the music and choreography is incredible. The podrace is incredible. I'd go as far to say the story itself is pretty good too. But it's all terribly let down by the directing which makes the actors seem shit too.
