@Eugene_V_Dabs@hexbear.net used to make great agitprop videos. Before retiring, they left a Mega folder with all their videos. I spent an entire evening writing a 100 line Python script to bulk upload their videos to a peertube instance.

Anyone knows what they use to generate TTS? I’m assuming they don’t record themselves lol

It’s an AI generated voice trained on the voice actor Harry Jon Benjamin who would probably approve of using for left wing agitation

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.
