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.

One of the things I miss about the friend who won’t talk to me anymore was how they would show me stuff they liked on YouTube. One of the last times we hung out we watched these short videos by this guy, can’t recall his name, who would talk about obscure food-related facts, like how the color coding on the bread clip things work.

I only have two channels that I really give a fuck about currently, Nexpo and Chemdelic. It’s hard for me to list off ‘things I’m interested in’, so either extrapolate from there, or just run shit by me.

One thing I can say though is I hate how extremely out of the loop I’ve become. Not just in regard to politics but media and other shit too.

Also doesn’t have to be channel recommendations. Just like, stuff you think I might like.

All of these are on the entertainment side of things:

Scott the Woz - Nostalgia (mostly Nintendo) videogame/console related videos. Related channel Scott's stash

Jauwn - mostly nft game dunking and some nostalgic game reviews (I think he's expanding this)

Two Minute Papers - this channel has been going downhill recently due to the AI craze and seemingly Nvidia sponsorships, but it has had lots of cool videos about research breakthroughs in rendering/simulations that were a fun watch. Hoping it returns to form in the near future.

MachoNacho Productions - old console modding review and installation videos

Thinking Basketball - companion channel to the podcast that breaks down NBA players/teams/systems beyond the level you get in traditional sports media

The B1M - construction channel focused on megaprojects. Probably some brainworms here but I watch and go "ooh pretty that's so cool and huge" uncritically. Seems to have fairly positive coverage of Chinese projects so maybe it doesn't someone can check me here.

Steve1989MREInfo - MRE review channel. Watch it only for the curiosity of the MRE and throw away anything else you hear from the former military guy

Beyond the Brick - Lego showcase channel for events/competitions around the world

Brickcrafts - more giant Lego builds mostly in a single town

CGMeetup - collection of short 3D animated works across a wide variety of contests/one-offs

Habie147 - VR games review/showcase channel from seemingly a leftist?

I've never seen him talk about anything but the MRE and I watched a few dozen of his videos

That was just kinda a catch-all warning. Anyone who is ex-us-military who isn't screaming from the rooftops about how they're eternally sorry for what they've done with a complete condemnation of the United States just feels like they should come with a warning.
