rush,

well duh, the detection uses JavaScript.

rush,

It proxies content, so whatever it can get from YouTube should be displayable, my guess is that its possible but most instances do not enable it for bandwidth and performance reasons

rush,

Both take resolutions and streams directly from YouTube, my guess is that it may vary a bit depending on the settings the instance host set.

rush,

why would I put a hexbear link when I’m on lemm.ee? 🤔

I’d double-check this isn’t an issue on your end, I can’t reproduce it here.

rush,

No, but subscriptions can be imported manually.

The point is to not load tracking tech YouTube ships with as well as staying relatively anonymous.

rush,

weird, my formatting might be messed up

Try again in a bit, I’ve tried to fix it :)

rush,

uBlock Origin’s default lists with both Firefox and uBO being on their latest is currently undetected. By that I mean they’ve already released fixes.

rush,

The extension menu has “redirect” and “back to original” buttons (or something similar, can’t check cuz I’m on mobile rn)

You could use this to visit the homepage and then let new tabs/videos redirect

rush,

Currently that is quite hard, because despite YouTube being an utterly insane business model it has prevailed so far.

I would love for an alternative, I personally really like PeerTube and the Fediverse in general, but mass adoption ain’t there yet :(

rush,

Absolutely agreed, I would love for peertube to take off

rush,

Piped.video is the official instance, but there’s more

piped.adminforge.de and piped.smnz.de have relatively high uptime and quick fixes in my experience.

rush,

Librewolf is Firefox configured with many privacy-related settings out of the box, uBlock Origin and it clears all data on exit by default.

rush,

It works well, services not working is more about websites trying to block these tools, and I try to be understanding of the issues.

rush,

It doesn’t use the APIs at all, which is also why Google can’t Cease & Desist them for not complying with API terms

rush,

please read up on threat models. If you need that amount of privacy/security that’s fine, but many don’t.
