Where do you get your video content nowadays?
On the old site, there were a number of funny video communities with regular posts, for example /r/Unexpected, /r/PublicFreakout, or /r/WhatCouldGoWrong. While there are plenty of memes on Lemmy, we have relatively little video content. Those of you who used to frequent video subs, what have you replaced them with since coming to Lemmy?

At least Lemmy has the "Post an unhelpful comment and extra points if you try to make OP feel bad for their choices" part of this down pat.
Here's what I've got so far:
!curatedtumblr@sh.itjust.works
!DeepIntoYouTube@kbin.social
!importantvideos@lemmy.best
edited to fix links and also I just realized I'm an idiot because curatedtumblr isn't a video community, but I'm leaving it to pad the post.
Unfortunately that's not the best way to link to communities on Lemmy, when people click those links they see it through Lemmy.world your home instance.
You want to format the links like below, with an exclamation point before the community name @ the instance that the community is hosted on
!curatedtumblr@sh.itjust.works
!DeepIntoYouTube@kbin.social
!importantvideos@lemmy.best
When you link it this way it will open on whatever instance the viewer is viewing your comment on.
TIL
Thank you for the information.
Absolutely my pleasure, Lemmy will be a better place when everyone knows how to use it.
