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.

This one hit me as a little off. I usually like their gaybaiting, it's usually quite funny and clearly coming from a place of "hell yeah, being gay is awesome"! But for whatever reason, this video had a couple jokes that felt more like how people would call stuff "gay" as an insult back in the early 2000's. I might be too sensitive, and I'm certainly not trying to "cancel" Alex and Aleksa for a couple of jokes that didn't land for me, but still, I didn't like this one. It felt at points like they were using "gay" to mean "effeminate (insulting)", and I think they know better than that, so I don't really know what happened here

no I don't think you're being sensitive, i felt the same way for this one. i feel like the jokes went a little too far and borderlined a bit homophobic to me. i was honestly suprised and a bit confused too. idk i've been noticing that a lot of their newer content and jokes have been going too hard with the irony poisoning lately.

They've been spending too much time with Americans.
