Youtube has started to artificially slow down video load times if you use Firefox. Spoofing Chrome magically makes this problem go away. (old.reddit.com)

Or even better: spend money (if you can afford it) to host a peertube instance that automatically rips the videos off of youtube.

Oh that’s amazing. I’m gonna see about doing that for channels I actively watch. Gives me an excuse to unfuck my NAS storage too since then it’ll be full faster.

Do you know of any software that does that already (I assume PeerTube itself doesn’t)?

Peertube does indeed have that functionality
