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.

I have never enjoyed Adam Conover. He's like Penn Jillette but even more insufferable and less funny, which is a triumph in both respects. But unlike Penn Jillette, Adam has always seemed disingenuous to me. So I'm not particularly surprised to see him shilling crypto, and not particularly surprised to see him backpedal for dear life. It is weird to hear him keep calling himself a comedian. I genuinely didn't know that's what he saw himself as.
He has done stand up for years. He's a part of the Dropout tv universe to some degree.
I've always felt the same way although I did think Adam ruins everything was somewhat good to expose normies to good new info
I watch a bit of Dropout and on one of their shows there was a bit where they had a celebrity judge and they were doing a survivor parody, I think. Can't remember who the celebrity was, I guess it doesn't matter. But Adam Conover was there, sort of randomly because he'd never been in an episode of that particular show before, and I remember thinking it was clear that he was only there because he was friends with the boss and must have wanted a chance to be around the celebrity guest. He just stuck out like a sore thumb because this was one of their improv shows which are entirely built around the actors' rapport with one another, a sizable part of the appeal is that you can tell all the performers and crew are friends who are hanging out, and none of the other performers seemed to know what to do with or say to Adam. I didn't necessarily feel like the other performers disliked Adam or anything, it was just very much the "friend of a friend who you don't know or have anything in common with has come to the get-together and it's making things slightly awkward" vibe.
Also he just wasn't very funny.
Adam's TV show "Adam Ruins Everything" started with CollegeHumor before moving to TruTV. He goes back to long before the the Dropout days and appears on a bunch of their shows.
