I have this running on a local server: https://github.com/alexta69/metube

It’s a frontend for yt-dlp and whenever I want to watch something I just download it and have a copy saved locally. It makes it harder to binge youtube feeds that the algorithm tries to shove down my throat, and that’s a good thing.

Next up, zeros and/or ones

NO SOUP FOR YOU! NEXT!

I missed the part where it backs up the claim that it’s unusable by AI?

Woah, it turns out due process is kinda important

Awesome! Thanks so much for doing this and sharing!

If any entities reading this have 1,701 advanced GPUs and need to get rid of one to operate without a license… dibs!

That was a hilarious read. Thanks for posting! I had to learn/use prolog for a class in college and in the ~10 years since then, this is the first time I’ve ever seen mention of it in the wild. I lost it at Chad’s flustered assertion that “…nobody knows prolog!”

Been following this for a while! I’m getting one!

Lmk if you find out. Maybe something with… lasers?

Why not leave it open? Haha, I’m just finding this thread a month later and would like a shirt…

Anything’s a sport if you’re sporty enough!

Hell yeah now Linux and I both will panic in style

Yeah, what the hell? I didn’t watch the video but one time use pads are crypto 101 first day of class kinda thing.

Yeah, I’d assumed it would respect the —metric=false flag when building with docker run, but docker-compose is ostensibly supported and easier to work with. I was able to successfully change other configuration options (such as setting the db to use MySQL instead of the default SQLite) using the docker-compose ‘command’ block, but the metric flag specifically was ignored. It’s entirely possible that this is a bug and not an intentional attempt to hoover up user data. Either way, data collection should be opt-in by default (by law, imo).

I thought I’d give this a shot, but the metrics/data collection flag was turned on by default and when I added a command to my docker-compose to turn them off, it was ignored. Then, I created an account and looked for a way to turn them off in the settings and there was none. You expect people interested in self-hosting OSS to be cool with sending data out of their network every time the server is started, a memo is created, a comment is created, a webhook is dispatched, a resource or a user is created?! Also, the metrics are collected by a 3rd party with their own ToS that could change at any time?

Holy hell, hard pass. I’d rather use a piece of paper.
