I wish there was a legal way for me to create a “backup” version for others to watch like a PeerTube instance, but to creators they would see it as not fair to them, so unfortunately my collection remains private.

I just give credit to the original channel name and provide the link to the original video. Now I know this is still illegal, but… I can’t be bothered to care. Being able to just randomly open videos from my library on any device with internet connection is a bliss. Also sharing stuff from my collection is so easy. I don’t earn any money from hosting those videos, so I think it’s not that bad.

Wow, your extremism is really admirable! Even though I disagree with it

I’m trying to find an alternative to VPN to be used on a locked up Windows device I can’t install any apps on. And it should be easy enough to be usable by non-tech-savvy people. @moonpiedumplings@programming.dev already provided a good solution

Thanks! I’ll look into it

That’s exactly what I need, thanks!

Thanks! SOCKS5 proxy is a good option, I don’t know why I didn’t think of it from the very beginning…

My goal is to bypass local censorship on university computers that don’t allow running any executables except those provided by the administrator. And I’m trying to help professors who aren’t particularly tech-savvy, so a webproxy is actually still a better option.

A browser inside a docker is a very viable solution, however my VPS is super small, so I don’t have resources for that unfortunately.

Close to invidious but not specific to any particular site. A page that allows to open other pages through it, like a browser inside a web page except it’s only for opening a website and has no other browser functionality. Here’s a proprietary example: croxyproxy.com

I’ve been looking for something like this for so long, thanks so much! I like how minimal and functional it is at the same time. This is the best combination of social media and blogging.

Thanks a lot for the script! I just thought of pulling posts automatically using some kind of script a few days ago and there you are telling me about that very thing lol

Delta Chat is working on exactly that

Where can I look for updates on this? I found nothing about this on their forum and Mastodon profile

Okay, thanks!

Thanks. 85% for 2.0.0 is really good!

Thanks! I am an absolute newb in this. Is there a patch that does that?

Oh that’s an important detail, thanks!

Tested with my instance and nothing worked unfortunately… @myszka@lemmy.ml @oddpixel@lemmy.wtf

I got similar results. However, fediverse servers pull data from other servers only after someone subscribes to profiles on them. I’m setting my own Funkwhale instance and when it’s up, I’ll try subscribing from Mastodon and then uploading something

Cool, thanks! Will give it a try

Neat! Element X is what didn’t work well with Conduit and made me search for alternatives in the first place. Gonna give it a try, thanks

I think that’s the only way to go right now. I thought of making a bot that just reposts toots from Mastodon to mimick Telegram channel chats

Delta Chat is working on exactly that

That’s so cool! If they manage to somehow provide support for reading older posts, it would be a straight up alternative to telegram.

XMPP is fine for broadcasting too

I think I tried XMPP before and there was no way to comment on those broadcasted messages. Is that still the case?
