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.

what an embarrassment for Trevor Noah, oh my god
edit: didn't realize he already left awhile ago and now it's a multi-host thing. still though, his entire run on the show was embarrassing
Problem with Trevor Noah is he just didn't get American politics and social issues. The material you use in South Africa will just not translate to the USA. It's completely different contexts. For instance, a party like the Republican party would be struggling to get above 5% of the vote in South Africa, yet in the USA it regularly wins elections. There is no equivalent to the modern US Democratic party in South Africa, as all the mainstream liberal political parties in South Africa, such as the Democratic Alliance (DA) have alienated black people and the black vote.
And that's not even talking about identity and how differently both countries societies see social issues around race, gender, status, etc. For instance, Trevor Noah would not be considered black in South Africa, but in the USA he is considered black. That's just one of many major differences that can make telling jokes about social issues difficult. He tried to a bit on it once, and it just fell flat.
