Not sure if it’s per capita because I can’t read Chinese.

GDP is a perfect measure of GDP. :think-about-it:

Ridiculous statement! GDP is a very poor measure of anything other than gross domestic product.

One key context is that between 1949-1980s Fujian was DELIBERATELY kept underdeveloped because it was militarized as a frontline against the Guomindang on the Taiwan island. Hence very little industry or commerce etc until 1992 when ties between mainland and Taiwan somewhat normalized.

And a lot of the early industry was due to overseas (mostly taiwanese) investments, iirc a lot of the big minnan industries like 361, li-ning, septwolves etc were funded by businessmen from across the strait.

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.
