@fiore @nyx still doesnt work for me and it drives me mad. yt-dlp works fine but even if i invoke mpv with a ytdl url (this is normally optional and only done to let you use things like video ids directly) it just doesnt run yt-dlp

@nyx Google is a company that turns "Google says 90% of tech workers are now using AI at work" into botched abortions like YouTube and Android

@zrb I've been under the assumption that invidious is basically dead at this point

@nyx @zrb videos load to long and often i get an error message if the video is above ten minutes. Like i hate alt tech for this very reason; the jagoffs who make these sites can't code

@Ulick @zrb I mean I wouldn't blame them too much for it but I do think that projects like invidious are kind of inherently not worth working on because they are choosing to play a cat-and-mouse game forever with a tech company who has orders of magnitude more resources than them. I think that labor would be better spent on stuff like actually autonomous alternatives like peertube

but then again depends on the dev's motivations. if I were to do a project like that it'd be purely out of spite for google trollface
