NewPipe does not have cast functionality and doesn’t include Sponsorblock.

That’s not casting dude, you are describing screen mirroring, which is a completely different kind of experience. Why tf would you even do mirroring if you can simply cast. This is a really strange reply.

Revanced is complicated because you first need to find a compatible YouTube version (old version) and download it’s APK. Then, you need to uninstall YouTube, apply Revanced to the downloaded APK and then install it Only to discover the Cast button was removed by Revanced. When you start over, deselect “remove cast button from video player”, you still end up without it.

I can’t even cast to SmartTubeNext on AndroidTV…

Way too complex and too limiting for 99.99% of YouTube watchers.

You could have caught it, even multiple times, while not experiencing symptoms. Meanwhile you did spread it to others unknowingly.

At first I thought why not just SQLite instead of a mariaDB, because as a self hoster you’ll probably have max 10 users on it anyway, is there a benefit to use mariaDB? Then noticed it’s not 1 but 3 seperate DBs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Why should storing your browser history and behaviour with a 3rd party in a 3rd country in a procured 3rd party cloud infra provider and a 3rd party colocation provider be the default? Why not keep that personal information just inside, instead of letting it leave out of the front door? Also, encryption has more to do with confidentiality than security. If someone gets access to your encrypted data all they have to do is encrypt it again, to do harm.
