What the stage is
The stage is the film room on the home page. A clip plays in the page so you do not have to hunt for the next one. It is a room in the Hub, not a promise about YouTube.
What plays
Guests see the house list: films the Hub already keeps. After you sign in you can paste your own YouTube links on My videos. Nothing of yours goes on the stage until the desk has looked at the list. Until then, you still see the house films.
The player is the normal YouTube player, embedded here. Sound can be muted from the header. The picture keeps moving. If you want the public comments on YouTube, open that same clip on YouTube. Hub does not post as you.
What the stage is not
Sitting with a clip does not buy a YouTube view, a subscriber, or a place in YouTube’s own counts. Hub does not sell views and does not ask you to leave a tab running for anyone else’s advertising.
The stage is not an ad screen. There is no paid placement on the player, and there is no reward for staring at an advertisement. If a clip itself contains an advert that YouTube inserted, that is YouTube’s player, not a Hub campaign.
Autoplay is there so a long evening does not need a tap on Next every few minutes. You can leave the page. The stage does not follow you into a call, the desk, or the office tools.
Your list
Upload is a shelf, not a broadcast. Paste links, tick the ones you mean, and send them. The desk approves or holds them. A held clip stays private. An approved clip can be mixed into the rotation when you choose to spend coins on minutes, which the next page explains. Zero coins is allowed: the list can still be reviewed.
