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.

Joshua Jones intro multilanguage — so apparently the Fireman Sam people also made a show about a Romani guy who lives in a canal boat, and its theme song was yet another banger by Mal Pope! (www.youtube.com)

"The Fireman Sam people" being formally known as Bumper Films, but let's be honest with ourselves, do most people know any Bumper Films shows other than Fireman Sam?

Unlike the Fireman Sam theme song, I can't find a full version of the Joshua Jones theme song. Perhaps the extended version of the Fireman Sam theme song was only created after that show became this massive hit, meanwhile Joshua Jones wasn't nearly as successful, so there was no demand for an extended version of the song. Just guessing!

Also, obligatory "oof" at the Polish version being just a voiceover dub...

I found a Reddit thread asking Romani people for their thoughts on Joshua Jones as representation, and the top comment said, "I was today years old when I discovered one of my favourite TV characters when I was a child was Roma." — So I dunno, if there's Roma who grew up loving the show without realizing the main character was "one of them", can we really attribute the show's lack of success to the main character's ethnicity?
