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.

What about those of us who have never cared? I've heard of Mr Beast but I have never seen any of his videos or videos about drama surrounding the guy. I cannot muster enough energy to have an opinion about him.

It's cool and good to have never heard of such a cultural parasite before, sure.

That said, you did have the energy to post here about your indifference, so do you want something for that?

I wanted to assert my moral superiority and flaunt the purity of my media consumption, because deep down (who am I kidding, it's surface level) I'm a sad, sad man and I thought it would make me feel better.

Hey its ok! i also haven't heard of mr beast other than his being on some commercial on tv the other day. Its not cuz i don't love treats (i was watching football after all) my brand of treat dismissal is Internet celebrity cuz I'm crotchety and old and he is lumped in with all the others as "some Internet punk"

Truthfully, I think it's a blessed thing if you truly never heard of that grifter before until recently.
