    I wish Eugene Dabs’ channel was still around, I could link to the Yankees vs Tankies video (which I have saved somewhere but I can’t find the damn thing).

        That’s good, but the Eugene Dabs one was a side-by-side, and the Yankee example was some soldiers in either Iraq or Afghanistan reveling in running a tank over some old man’s work vehicle because he was “rude” to them or something.

          Oh shit you’re right I do remember that one.

          Now that search works for posts older than 6+ months I wonder if I can find the archive of all their videos because I do distinctly remember them all being uploaded to Streamable or elsewhere too.

          edit: https://mega.nz/folder/A6pgwS4B#TwrgIUczRfH1QtclfyU84g Dabs archived them all to mega here - so I’d look here. I did just thumb through the titles to see if I could pick it out but edgeworth-shrug

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.
