It is a community for sharing and discussion of any left video content and ideas. So, if you can make or find content with a left perspective that focuses on bread, sure! But the name is actually in reference to left author Peter Kropotkin’s The Conquest of Bread. But, I mean, bread is good, too.
Because it is. I think @redpen is trying to say that individual posts/videos may not be explicitly political, but the BreadTube community as a whole definitely is. Kinda the whole point is to take a leftist lens to whatever topic of discussion. There’s not necessarily anything wrong with being political, but there’s not much sense in downplaying it IMO.
Breadtube is a section of youtube of left leaning content creators that focus on a wide array of topics with some sort of leftist lens of analysis, there a lot of video essayists, but there’s also streamers, shitposters, and daily posters.
Some of the big names are Philosophy Tube, Contrapoints, FD Signifier, Beau of the Fifth Column, Vaush, Xanderhal, Suris and a whole bunch of other content creators.
Breadtube as a name comes from Conquest of Bread which is a pretty foundational writing for a lot of leftist thought.
It always annoyed me how the ads were formatted to look like posts, always felt like they were trying to trick people into clicking on it (which honestly that probably is the intent). Feel the same way with ads on Twitter. It's one thing to show ads and another to format them to try and trick users into clicking on them
That fixes the ads but still the official reddit app is a huge backstep from the now cutoff apps that made browsing reddit a pleasure. It's just a rippoff off all the terible algorihtm based Facebook, Twitter and Instagram apps that constantly show me posts that i've neither subscribed to nor I am interested to see. It's a shame.
There is an option in revanced manager to patch reddit sync to use your own oauth client id. I just tried it out and the patched reddit sync just crashed when it start loading the frontpage. oh well.
I actually tried with latest version of Sync Dev already installed in my phone. What version are you using? Also, which google docs? I only follow the instruction in revanced manager that said to put the client id string in /data/storage/emulated/0/reddit_client_id_revanced.txt
Here’s the full instructions. Also, you have to uninstall all versions of Sync before you start patching. The guide I linked has everything from creating your own API key to running the patcher.
Yes, it’s initially made to patch youtube. The recommended youtube apk to patch right now is v18.19.35, or you can download pre-patched apk of youtube here: github.com/revanced-apks/build-apps/releases . You’ll also need to install Vanced MicroG if your phone is not rooted.
