What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?
  • Zorin OS, which was the second distro I ever tried, I hated how outdated their repos were since they were using an older Ubuntu LTS repository for packages. It was quite painful to install software that would otherwise have worked out-of-the-box on Ubuntu. I hope this is no longer the case today.

  • You can no longer view age restricted Youtube content through NewPipe or Piped (LibreTube) as a result of Youtube's new policy
  • Author of Piped (and also a member of TeamNewPipe and LibreTube) here.

    I haven't seen any changes from YouTube recently, the ways we fetch age restricted content still seem to work for most videos. However, this method may not work for all videos as YouTube has different levels of age restrictions afaict. I've seen very few videos fall under that category personally.

    If anything were to change in the future, I may consider implementing something similar to what this extension does (or use their API) in Piped.

  • My Opinion: NewPipe, Piped, Invidious, etc's days are numbered.
  • Author of Piped here.

    I think it is quite unlikely for YouTube to implement a DRM for watching videos. In anyways, we will keep fighting collaboratively as long as we can.

    The most likely way YouTube probably will affect us currently is if they decide to log in wall their platform like how Twitter did.

  • DeArrow is now Supported

    A nimble Mastodon web client

    We now have support for DeArrow in Piped! You can enable it on the preferences page.

    DeArrow is an extension that allows for video titles and thumbnails to be crowdsourced for better accuracy and less clickbait.

    YouTube has recently introduced features to let creators A/B test video titles/thumbnails to measure the impact on viewership. DeArrow is a great way to take back control of what you watch.

    Community isn't federating properly from my instance

    I can't seem to search for my community on my own instance: https://feddit.rocks/search?q=!piped%40feddit.rocks&type=All&listingType=All&page=1&sort=TopAll

    Other instances can't seem to find my community:

    https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]

    https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]

    https://beehaw.org/c/[email protected]

    https://feddit.de/c/[email protected]

    It seems to work fine on https://programming.dev/c/[email protected] tho!

    What are the best fediverse alternatives to youtube?
  • Peertube is based on the Activitypub protocol and can federate with other instances just like Lemmy/Mastodon. Odysee is a decentralized blockchain-based video-sharing platform.

    If you'd like to monetize your content, Odysee would be the better option due to its own cryptocurrency for tipping. I personally like Peertube more, as I think it is better moderated against right-wing content.
