  • I don't think any of the proxies or frontends have a good way around it yet, and google is clearly using it as a way to fuck with said frontends. Best practice suggestion: Every time you get cockblocked by something like this, you must send at least one friendly DM or message to the content creator suggesting they at least put a second copy of their content on a decentralized platform.

  • Although, I think the answer to the barrier to entry is to be less concerned with making federated services feel like centralized apps, more concerned with rebranding server select as the advantage that it actually is. Educate those people.

  • It's not gatekeeping, none of the opinions shared here by Linus are categorically leftist. The person retweeting him is erroneously putting him into a box, or knows more about his full ideology than he's shared in the tweet.

  • Asking someone if they support violence is like asking if they support the coriolis effect. It's a fact of life, not just for humans but every living thing, that we have to deal with sometimes. It's a nonsensical question in most contexts.

    Better to ask if someone supports self-defense against violence.

    In this case, if they support self-defense against institutional violence.

  • Yeah that's a fair point. I use newpipe specifically to get away from the youtube experience and keep only the videos. Newpipe does let you create local playlists and subscriptions that live only in the app, which I do utilize a bit.

  • Sounds like a great way to get the functionality of bike lanes destroyed piecemeal as they're adapted first and foremost to the use of oversized North American emergency vehicles. In the end you get pulled over by an asshole cop on your bike for riding in "the ambulance lane" and you've gotta pay the fine as you can't miss work to dispute it.

    No. Stand your ground here. Keep pushing back against the use of nonsensically oversized, outrageously expensive emergency vehicles. Cut down their argument at the ankles by bringing North American emergency response vehicles in line with the standards used by the rest of the world.

  • Newpipe > revanced IMO. Newpipe also supports a few other media streaming services outside of youtube, and when stuff breaks due to google interference they usually have a fix out within a few days.

  • If you're on android I'd recommend viewing youtube videos through newpipe as it strips out everything except for the stream. Only downside is that it doesn't have replacement functionality for sponsorblock.
