DNS should be working, I manually set the DNS server. I don’t really wanna install docker tho, I feel like that could cause other issues. If it only works in docker, that doesn’t really help me anyway, does it?

No, is that required?

How so?

Would have upvoted but it was at 69

You do know I’m not a furry tho, right?

Sorry, I got kinda mad because I hate when a group of people gets bullied just because others see them as weird and I thought this was an instance of this happening. You’re right tho.

Ok, maybe I understood something wrong here but specifically saying someone is not a normal human instead of just them having a weird hobby sounded to me like they were trying to say that. But I also hate how much furries are getting hated on for no reason, so I get kinda mad when I see stuff like that.

How are your feelings towards them neutral if you don’t recognize them as normal human beings? Are they lesser human beings because they like to put on silly costumes?

Furries are normal human beings tho

The Rumbling in my ass

3, at least

Hab ich tatsächlich schon gemacht, aber iwie funktioniert das noch nicht ganz. Weil ich selber nicht rausfinden konnte warum, hab ich grad nen post gemacht wo ich nach Hilfe frage.

Wegen dem letzten Part, es geht zwar schon um privacy, aber dadurch, dass ich momentan YouTube direkt nutzen muss, weil die Piped instances nicht funktionieren, ist es halt immer noch besser. Außerdem hab ich angefangen nen GTK 4 Piped client zu schreiben und ich muss das halt auch iwie testen können.

Thanks, I’m gonna selfhost it then. What you said about the piped components sounds interesting, is there like a list of them?

If I was just downloading stuff, I wouldn’t be using a VPN. Not sure if it’s illegal but it’s just not worth it for the police to go after people who just download. With torrents, due to the way they work, you’re also uploading. That’s the reason you should use a VPN when downloading with torrents.

The only way to find out it was you, would be to ask the VPN provider. Mullvad has a perfect track record of not keeping logs tho, so it’s very unlikely they’re gonna get anything from them. All that work wouldn’t even be worth it for someone just downloading some music like you do.

I have my torrent client running 24/7 connected to a different VPN to my home country, Germany, as well and nothing’s ever happened, even though Germany is pretty strict when it comes to this stuff.

It’s true, he said that

notice how you didn’t capitalize anything

I’ve wanted to contribute code to open source projects for years at this point but looking at the code just seems so daunting. I’ve only contributed things like icons, translations and map data in OSM. I did start working at my first job this week as a software developer, so I hope I’ll get more experience in working with existing projects.

No, PipePipe and NewPipe work the same way and load the data from YouTube’s server by extracting the information they need (including the video stream) from the website. Piped is a project that uses NewPipes’ extraction but puts it on the server side. Piped has to be hosted on a server but that server extracts the information from the website and then sends it to the client, thereby proxying it to you. With Piped, your device never contacts the YouTube servers itself. LibreTube is a FOSS Android app, that’s also on F-Droid, that uses Piped.
