For anyone else wondering: This is an alternative YouTube frontend, nothing federated.

You can't log in with Google, you can log in with your Piped account.

Content is scraped from YouTube's site the same way NewPipe does it.

Thank you for your suggestion. It wasn't me asking the question, though. @may_pretender, did you already check this one out?

I used to run a private instance of SearXNG, but it wasn't for me. I don't really know exactly why.

I switched to Kagi now and I'm pretty happy with the results. However, there are some things to consider:

  • Kagi costs money
  • They claim to be privacy-friendly and that they don't build a profile of you
  • There's no proof on that
  • There's no private way to pay, credit / debit card only
  • Like that, they could totally build a profile of you
  • They're US-based, so what happens when one of the 3-letter-agencies asks them for user data?

Anyway. I'm trying to be positive and I really hope that I'm funding something good here. So far, I really like it.

Okay, guys. I'm not that mod, but could we please stop recommending non-FOSS apps? This is a FOSS community, after all.

I hate "powermodding", but I'm just going to remove the comments now. I usually don't do that, but unfortunately, all recommendations were closed source, apparently.

I can only find a GitHub page for translations for Ruthless Launcher. Is it actually FOSS? Please note that this is a community for free and open source Android software.

I can't find any source code for that through a quick search. Please note that this is a community for free and open source Android software. Many of us here don't endorse closed source software at all.

This is just a heads-up. I'm not going to remove this.

Right now, the web interface can be used for tasks that require database access, like getting a list of posts that are marked as deleted (for purging them after x amount of time), pulling GDPR packages when users request them, showing statistics, etc. There's also a bot account (in my case, @CloudComet@social.fossware.space) which can be controlled through the web interface and which can automatically pin or lock stuff, post threads or comments, etc.

It's just the beginning and I didn't have much time to work on it yet, because I don't find much time to concentrate these days (2 little children at home).

I also expect many of the features my tool has or has planned to be only temporary, as they'll most likely be implemented in Lemmy directly.

I'm currently working on an admin / moderator web frontend that'll allow for some moderation tasks that Lemmy doesn't support yet.

If I get somewhere, I'll make it open source for instance admins to run.

Ich finde, wenn man Öffis benutzt, ist Öffi ziemlich gut. Findest du im Play Store oder auf F-Droid, weils quelloffen ist.

Damit kannst du Verbindungen, Haltestellen, etc. suchen. Funktioniert echt klasse.

Dann halt noch das Deutschlandticket kaufen. Geht auch digital. Ich persönlich nutze die Deutschlandticket-App.
