You can install them wherever you want.

What special apps are you using to view it?

If your router is provided by your ISP then its like for their usage

I think thats a good position to have, if librewolf works for you i hope it continues to do so.

I used to be more of an open source purist but recent and not so recent events have shifted my thinking, it seems to be one of the four freedoms is regularly taken advantage of by corporations and should be reconsidered. Not that we as individuals shouldnt have those freedoms, but for-profit corps specifically have proven time and time again that they will only take and never give back.

Its just as open source as the other chromium based browsers

They also have very valid reasons for keeping the features that make the UI unique closed, seeing how many open source projects like ffmpeg get completely taken advantage of its a smart move.

Youll find that parts of brave arent actually open source either, such as their built in AI or the build in crypto wallet.

At some point you gotta ask if its worth having open source purity tests when even the flagship products are shoveling AI and other garbage no one wants into their browser.

Librewolf might pass that purity test for now, but without mozilla librewolf likely would not continue, vivaldi does not have this problem.

Give vivaldi a try, not because brave is bad, but because vivaldi is better in every way.

I would consider nuclear winter a pretty big change in climate.

Although patrolling the mojavi might make you wish for one…

The proper way to do it is connect your router to the vpn, most routers have support for it these days.

If you want to do it the harder way, connect one machine to your vpn provide on one wg network and create a second wg network for your local devices which routes all traffic (not just http) through the one device thats connected to your VPN provider. Basically make youe own home vpn server and connect to that.

Using just squid for http to relay the vpn in addition to being fragile and breaking sometimes is also just not really giving you the full vpn coverage, your ip is going to be leaking all over the place.

Im not sure if this is the same thing but i noticed a similar problem in vivaldi but its specific to youtube, or at least it doesnt affect peertube the same way. It seems to be based on the volume of the video, my guess its a “feature” that tries to normalize volume between different videos, but ive never figured out how to disable it.

GrapheneOS doesnt have FRP due to it being exclusively a google service (it requires signing in to the previously used google account that was used before the reset)

Afaik there isnt any equivalent service available to GOS, although it probably could be technically possible.

Owner profile for main use, shelter w play services for apps that need them.

I also keep a Duress pin enabled which i have written down inside the phones case, so if Anyone “finds” my phone and tries to unlock it they will just end up wiping it.

You could do most of it with a website like craigslist, the hard part is managing reputations/feedback.

I really hate to say it but i suppose you could use some blockchain based system for tracking reputations… That or pgp, but realistically it seems to be a billion times easier to convince people to “use blockchain” than it is to get them to use pgp.

Im not taking any revenue by mirroring channels, video and channel descriptions always include links to Patreon or whatever the original creators have for donations. Its no different from watching on invidius or revanced, except that google isnt hosting the content, i am.

Youtube is the the one robbing creators by giving them fractions of a cent for every dollar they make in ad-revenue and using their power to control what content can and cant earn revenue.

If a creator asked me to stop i would but i dont see that happening when its literally just my own private archive that might get maybe a dozen views on a good day.

This page has a pretty good video tutorial: https://fedihost.co/blog/slug/automatically-syncing-youtube-to-peertube

The official documentation is a bit more short and to the point: https://docs.joinpeertube.org/use/channel-sync

Ive been running my own instance for just over a year now, mostly to mirror youtube channels i like and for my own live streaming. I also try to upload the occasional full movie just because whos gonna stop me.

I think uploading content is what will help the most. Its really easy to setup a syncronized channel connected to youtube, anyone can do it for any channel they want. If everyone just setup a sync for 1 or 2 of their favorite yt channels it would make peoples complaints of nothing being available on peertube go away. Dont worry about subs or views right now, just focus on adding content so its available when the users do come.

Youtube gets worse all the time, the other corporate for profit alternatives all suck. If we can just have content waiting for people, esp content they are already familiar with from yt (but without ads) the users will evenrually star to stick around and grow more.

Yes there is!

Its a bit of extra work to get on some chrome based browsers but it works great once you have it set.

Interestingly, while they do block vpns, they don’t seem to be able to block the libred instance I run on the same IP address as my VPN.

I guess we have different definitions of what a honeypot is then. I dont it has to start as a honeypot to qualify as one once law enforcement is involved.

There are countless examples of this kind of infiltration on other services. you can call it something else but either way i think youd have to be a fool to trust an operation like that to be in any way secure from monitoring by law enforcement.

I cant believe i beed to explain to someone that venture capitalists are not good at security and do will not fight legal battles for the sake of their users. I linked multiple examples, believe what you want.

because it was being used to attract criminals into thinking it was a safe and legitimate service, while under theee surface it was relaying all the messages to law enforcement.
