Video platforms are designed to answer a question you did not necessarily ask: what should play next? Even when you arrive with a specific intention, the surrounding interface keeps negotiating for a longer session.
Tubeleau is a workspace for the material you chose. Videos can be arranged into a deliberate collection, annotated, revisited, and watched without turning every pause into another recommendation. It does not need to invent a feed because the user's selection is already the point.
The design makes attention a resource the viewer controls. A calmer player is not an anti-video position. It is a way to make the time spent with video more intentional and more useful afterward.
