Some users have suggested that 22chan start its own YouTube channel to help attract new users by showcasing the OC created by our community. The idea is to upload videos that originated on 22chan and include a link to the original post in the description. However, this raises a few important questions:
What qualifies as "content made for 22chan"?
Should only content specifically created for 22chan be uploaded? For instance, in the case of content like the MAD video translations in >>>/a/389/, these videos are derivative works and may already exist elsewhere unlike >>>/sewers/1314/ which is clearly made for 22chan. Should they still be considered for upload? I personally think this would attract people from specific niches.
Who decides what gets uploaded?
Should the decision rest with the entire 22chan community, or should we leave it to the original creators of said content to submit videos they think is suitable for the channel?
(I'll re-edit this post with the answered questions once we figure this out.)
The channel will be located at https://www.youtube.com/@nijyuniba.
To submit a new video for the channel, please quote the specific post where the content was originally shared on the site and include a title. Avoid uploading the actual OC directly to this thread unless it's a higher-quality version or has been updated in some way. Generally, the content should originate from other parts of the website and not be created specifically for this thread.
If anyone would like to contribute by creating an avatar for the channel, it would be greatly appreciated!
