Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Like, don't get me wrong there are certain channels (even ones I don't care for) that do be making a lot of content that seems like it takes work, or at least a good amount of research.

But then you got people who put out like 2 videos a year of them monologuing in a costume to a camera and maybe citing 2 books, while making 6 figures (or more), and apparently pay someone to do most of the post production work, and then post about "burnout" on Twitter.

I mean like... come on bro.

I feel like this charade they do of pretending it's really hard is an element of hustle culture. They could just cop to the fact they got a sweet gig and own it, but they all gotta do this song and dance about what a slog it is.
