Use Unbound to redirect youtube.com to invidious?
  • Ah that makes sense, I hadn’t considered that https would mess this up. I actually already use libredirect on Firefox on my desktop, I was just hoping to set up a network wide redirect. Thanks for the help!

  • Use Unbound to redirect youtube.com to invidious?

    Has anyone tried to use unbound (or even a hosts file) to redirect requests to youtube to an invidious instance? It seems pretty trivial in my head but I cannot find any reference to it online

    YSK: Safari extensions on iOS let you redirect reddit urls to an alternative
  • Libredirect does a similar thing on Firefox desktop. I use it to redirect all Reddit links to my locally hosted libreddit and YouTube redirects to random invidious instances so that it’s different every time.

  • Isn’t it a bit of an annoying having repeat communities across various Lemmy instances?
  • To be honest I don’t see the issue with multiple similar communities. It’s no different to how Reddit would have many subreddits with similar themes. For example on Reddit there were dozens of Star Wars subs so people would subscribe to them all

  • People of Lemmy, what do you use to read posts on Lemmy?

    Why should I get a VPS over self hosting?
  • That's really helpful thanks. My main reason for considering switching is for availability when outside of my home. I know I could port-foward but I am concerned about the security risks of that. I might buy one for just a month or two to see how it might help

  • Why should I get a VPS over self hosting?
  • I hadn't really considered hardware problems although I suppose that's a rather negligible cost. I probably only have to replace my own hard drives every 3 years or so. I appreciate the insight!

  • Why should I get a VPS over self hosting?

    A recent post here about 4th July sales has made me consider buying a VPS but the cost still seems a little steep. What are the main advantages of using a VPS?
