• YouTube gets more aggressive in pushing adblock warnings with countdown timer

  Protip: You should download a non-stock YouTube app to your TV instead, for instance: https://smartyoutubetv.github.io It has YouTube premium and more, e.g. Sponsor lock, it's over all superior. And free. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• What have you given up due to the cost of living crisis?

  SmartTube is nice for the TV too if you have a firestick or something you can install it on, because as well as getting rid of ads it has sponsorblock built in. Source: 11 months ago

• Google un-bans Downloader app, but developer still mad about “broken” DMCA

  I think there might be more to this story. This app is what people generally use to sideload apps on a locked Google TV device such as the Google Chromecast. One such commonly sideloaded app is SmartTube, an unofficial YouTube client with no ads and SponsorBlock included: https://smartyoutubetv.github.io/ I'm not surprised Google is eager to take it down under any pretext, and not so eager to restore it. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Mobile App, redesign, new dev, promotion build a bright future for PeerTube

  PeerTube is a decentralized and federated alternative to YouTube. The goal of PeerTube is not to replace YouTube but to offer a viable alternative using the strength of ActivityPub and P2P protocols. Being built on ActivityPub means PeerTube is able to be part of a bigger social network, the Fediverse (the Federated Universe). On the other hand, P2P technologies help PeerTube to solve the issue of money, inbound... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Youtube ad block on pc (ublock origin)

  If you're looking for YouTube alternatives, you might be interested in PeerTube. PeerTube is to YouTube what Mastodon is to Twitter. (Plus PeerTube and Mastodon use the same federation technology. You can follow PeerTube accounts from inside Mastodon and vice versa.). Source: 5 months ago

• My video streaming wishlist for the next 3 to 5 years

  Hey! Just a rando here, but I would be interested in hearing your opinion as to where Peertube does well with this wish list and where it needs improvement. https://joinpeertube.org https://framablog.org/2023/11/28/peertube-v6-is-out-and-powered-by-your-ideas/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

  If you are curious about PeerTube, I can't recommend you enough to check the official website to learn more about the project.

• PeerTube v6 is out, and powered by your ideas

  > YouTube (and other mainstream providers) solves user stories. The user story is "I want to find and watch interesting videos" and they nail it. You miss another user story: IT department wants to self host a video distributing platform on their intranet and users need to embed video in intranet CMS (blogs, wikis, etc.) and they will watch those videos at home, at the office and in between places.
