Lemmy has a very foss focused privacy focused community and this is a bot which responds to YouTube links ( not privacy respecting ) with piped links ( privacy respecting ) so the people who don't want to open YouTube due to said privacy concerns do not have to open YouTube. Similar to the reddit bots that would respond to amp links with the actual link.
Scrolller ( sources from reddit, but you aren't looking at any reddit ads and making reddit money )
Wouldn't that be x y z or something similar then though ? You wouldn't even think to use i j k for that
i did my own research and the answer was yes and i’m very happy about it thanks for pointing me in this direction
Yikes! didn’t know that! Really wish that there were youtube front ends with last.fm support, because i would switch from spotify in an INSTANT if there were. if invidious or piped just added the ability to scrobble i would cancel my spotify right now
what i want to do is host a second wifi network that leeches off a target wifi and just redistributes the connection, but with a vpn inbetween it ( mullvad or nord or vyprvpn ). Can a standard laptop do that for me ? this would not be for accessing stuff remotely, i have tailscale and / or chrome remote desktop for that, this for using a vpn on devices that don’t have the ability to get a vpn app on.
i already do have a normal laptop running linux, i’ll certainly give pihole on just normal linux a go. Can you use a normal linux laptop as a vpn router ? if you can that would be massively convenient to me. i kinda assumed raspberry pis had specialized functions for this kind of thing that just a normal computer wouldn’t
do note that most of community is now available for the free on youtube and has been available for free on piracy websites for a looong time
use your normal spotify account and use xmanager spotify https://github.com/Team-xManager/xManager
to my knowledge there have never been any bans for it
disagree. I don’t have a Pi Hole because i don’t have a raspberry pi, but i do have a couple apps for dns based filtration on the iphone ( dnscloak or lockdown for example ) and that + hyperweb has never come anywhere close to what ublock can do on desktop. still tap somewhere on a website and then a whole new tab opens and it’s an add for realtors at shockingly low prices and i go back to the original tab and try to tap the play button and the same thing happens again and i have to do it 3 times and it’s just a nuisance. Using a site that just doesn’t have ads though, works great! + movie web is selfhostable, so no matter what at any point in the future even if they put ads on their main instance you can spin up your own and not have that problem.
Mainly on ios im just sideloading itorrent and using stremio web to get magnet links and then playing them in vlc though: Using a website at all is kinda a mediocre way to watch something. That’s not something i’d tell other people to do though cause it’s kind of a chore and requires a vpn and all that.
wiki seems kinda overwhelming. Seems easier to just point people in right direction immediately instead of having them sift through the TONS of links on the wiki, half of which are riddled with ads.
