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.

Remember to differentiate between games where the character's appearance is cosmetic, versus games with individual characters with unique abilities. You can't really read too far into the latter. People might just want a particular type of ranged DPS or whatever. Men who would never, ever choose a woman in Call of Duty will pick D.Va in Overwatch because she counters some fucking guy's ability
Yeah same thing with fighting games. The competitive people are picking characters that work for their style. If their main gets a gender swapped equivalent in the sequel, they'll probably switch.
Though in my case i prefer female charachters in non-Smash fgs because fighting game girls are hot. I dont give a damn about Cammy and Juri's mechanics, I main them in SF6 because theyre the nicest (and coolest) to look at. Though Alex was my fave in 5 so thats not consistent.
