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.

Have you seen Boomers with their Disney and Beatles memorabilia? Or Forrest Gump? I think nostalgia suckers are spread across generations. And it's not like you're gonna see nostalgia marketing for Zoomers because 1) they're like 25; and 2) they don't have any money.

Is Gen X nostalgia even a thing compared with boomer and millennial nostalgia? We haven't exactly seen a Cheers reboot or a Happy Days revival.

We did get a Frasier reboot.

Mostly Star Wars. The prequels were definitely pandering to them when they came out. A lot of music, too. Especially '80s music.

Wouldn't Stranger Things also qualify (I have not watched it, I'm afraid; just heard a lot of 80s nostalgia)?

Frankly you sound a bit upset over something pretty silly.

Maybe clarify tone before accusing. Automatically assuming the worst intention behind a comment and reacting based on that makes online communities worse places.

Frankly it sounds like you're taking good faith criticism in bad faith because it disagreed with you. Show a little respect for our comrades, man.

I am upset there isn't enough beanis nostalgia slop in mainstream media.
