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.

Lots of bangers. Uplifting clips of kids seeing through American propaganda, and genuinely heartwarming moments of cross-cultural learning. sicko-wholesome

You guys gotta stop calling it RedNote, okay? If we're doing this even partially as an F U to our own US government, you've got to start calling it Little Red Book or just RedBook!

god damn I cannot stand and will never get behind the trend of "video player but with tons of annoying shit on the screen and somehow also barely any user controls"

I'm just being a curmudgeon though, I'm glad people are having fun with this silliness

Are there ads and pop-ups and shit now? Sorry I'm old and I only know how to use Friendster.

cheeto-man impression at the end was really good.

I love the Chinese guy who does the Trump impressions, he already taught me how to say America in Chinese

The algo is pretty good, I just set up an account and it took like 15 minutes for it to start feeding me Stardew Valley, photography, and Luigi edits

Oh fuck they got Young Sheldon clips already.

Thinking about that George Carlin bit where he says he doesn't pray to God but to Joe Pesci; because Joe Pesci looks like the type of guy that gets shit done.

This was way more wholesome than I thought it was going to be.

Heartwarming.

Can Americans not get by with a VPN and an APK download? I really don't know.

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

iPhones can't do APK downloads I think they're locked down to the app store apps unless you jailbreak them

They could but they won't, for the same reason you don't see many people from mainland China past the great firewall. It's just more convenient to use an alternative site.
