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.

aren't those just gemtexts on midnight.pub (which wtf i need to move there for posting)
It seems to be the case. I stumbled upon midnight.pub for the first time so I don't know much about it
Yeah it seems like midnight.pub just has their posts on a gemini protocol for browsing as well as http. Thanks for getting me knee deep into browsing a bunch of smallweb sites I've never encountered before because I'm not a developer nor am I smart enough to contribute to such projects - I love window-gazing into shit like this and barely understanding 90% of it but going 'waow people are living such different lives than me' lol.
More on Gemini here if you're interested: https://geminiprotocol.net/ (it definitely has a better name than finger/spartan/gopher which are all similarish non-http protocols but idk....)
I love how apparently the user lingo is 'gemspace' and 'gopherspace'. Hexbear needs to get an embassy in the Mare Crisium Soviet Socialist Regency (gemini://soviet.circumlunar.space; gopher://soviet.circumlunar.space)
Lagrange if you wanna browse gemspace: https://git.skyjake.fi/gemini/lagrange
Thanks for the resources
On android, I use Buran (available on fdroid) and it works well enough for me.
The first page I landed on when I checked gemini a few months back was called zaibatsu corporation or something along the lines(cyberpunk setting maybe). Seems like it had two sister sites and this was one of them which I missed. Thanks for mentioning it. They have a cap on the number os users though.
I really miss internet from the 00s.
