@xChaos svého času jsem zkoušel vkládat odkazy na #invidious abych obešel jutub, ale ten je tak nějak v troskách, s poslední funkční instancí, a jsem rád, pokud vůbec přes něj jde jutub občas spustit. Zajímavé, že #newpipe zlvádá zatím boj s jutub obranou lépe

Thanks to Fijxu use of Anubis videos still can be watched on inv.nadeko.net. 🫡

I feel like because of the aggressive bot scraping that intensified not long ago will going to make it impossible to continue to use feed readers and the only way to interact with websites will going to be restricted to only be possible from web browsers.
Already opening up videos in mpv from my rss subscribed invidious feeds not working, it was my preferred way to watch videos. Just to clarify I'm aware that rss still works the only thing that doesn't is opening up video links directly with mpv or with any other video player that can do the same. And not only that but I fear at some point reading full articles inside an rss reader will not work forcing me to open article links in a web browser, even if some of feeds can fetch full articles minimizing the need to do so.

I'm not trying to minimize the impact of this scrapers that have on free and open source projects and on web admins who have to deal with this onslaught of bot activity, they are the ones who got it worst.

Free online services often make you pay with your data, but it's worst when you pay with your time.

If you have ever seen yourself watching videos you did not meant to, or getting to YouTube with no purpose, I'll show you how to regain control over what you watch, by using tools that will show you only the videos you want to watch.

You will learn how to self-host an Invidious Instance and use it from FreeTube. Find it here:

I really like the stage 6 of Everywhere At The End of Time. It's a 90% accurate depiction of what my mind "sounds" like most of the time without stimulus, without Linux, without computers, without friends, without purpose, without humanity.

In those 4 years of "total isolation", without social media, I had nothing in my mind. I knew I was good at something but idk. I was "purposeless", stagnating.
