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.

Damn when did ID get cool? I though he was just a slur enthusiast

He got an only-fans girlfriend and she forced him to repent. Now the slur enthusiasts hate him.

Is she the one who’s Lebanese/irish? She sounds kinda based and he certainly is more articulate on Israel now than 10-15 years ago

If I remember correctly, idubbz apologized for all the slurs and misogyny a few years back (ironically I think it was in an interview with H3). He realized he had been unintentionally courting a right-wing fanbase and grew up. He seemed genuine.

Sad to see how far Ethan/H3 continues to fall

He also did a video on Sam Hyde, someone he had some kind of affinity for and I think the process of doing that, of experiencing Sam Hyde in person, and really made he introspective. I can't remember if this was before or after what you mentioned. But I remember he finished that video and he clearly didn't have a positive experience.

From what I remember, Idubbbz was trying to make a video against Sam Hyde. Sam Hyde somehow figured it out. Sam Hyde hired a bunch of actors to pretend to be Sam's friends to troll Idubbbz. Idubbbz released the video against Sam Hyde and then Sam Hyde released a video showing that everyone in Idubbbz video were actors that Sam payed for.

Oh I missed that side of the story, that's wild.

Only after Sam forced his hand.

I never really followed him (just knew his reputation) but he made a video not long ago that I couldn't avoid where he talks about his old content and the community he cultivated and how he wanted to change and I found it really fascinating to hear him reflect, personally I think it's worth a watch (I'm remembering now that this video legit made me cry hearing him talk about his realizations that he was hurting his fans and people around him): https://youtu.be/iRkCfOuW_u0

It seems like a bunch of commenters on the Ethan video missed this memo from a year ago lol

I'm looking at some of his videos in the last few months and he has ones dunking on anti-abortion and anti-trans conservatives

Based. I’ve thankfully been free of the YouTube commentary space for years so I missed this development

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago

it started to happen about 3 years ago I think and he officially addressed the topic in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRkCfOuW_u0
