Depending on your OS it should prevent screen recording. Maybe screen recording works depending on the DRM level.
The DRM prevents you from directly downloading the files. Similarly Spotify requires DRM so it's impossible to download songs.
Obviously if it's on your device there're ways to circumvent DRM, either by recording or having the right keys.
Most of the time it's the rightholders who demand copy prevention, even if it doesn't prevent copies but annoys customers if it fails.
From how many people talk about real-debrid I would've thought it'd see more usage. But I also prefer having media stored by me instead of streaming. With Jellyfin it's easier to access with multiple devices.
I have a server with a Ryzen 3 3200G with a B450 mainboard. The system has 16GB RAM, a boot SSD and a 16TB HDD. With proxmox and a few VM's installed with low CPU usage I've read 25-30W from a power meter.
Keep in mind that the system relies on the integrated GPU. If it had an dedicated GPU the power consumption would probably increase around 10-30W.
That's also how I often access YT. Libreddit is already selfhosted in the local network (+ wireguard on clients) and I'll look into hosting something for YT.
Sadly most people want to keep their recommendations and the UI, so they'll stay on the official site.
Seeding definitely helps preserve media. My comment meant to say that many people pirate media without seeding like ddl, usenet or leeching on public trackers. E.g. because they don't have good upload or not enough storage.
You're right, piracy is often the only way to archive media. Many releases aren't available on BluRay in all regions. It's thanks to those people who go through the trouble and rip media.
I meant to comment above on how not all piracy helps preserve media.
While I agree that piracy can be preservation of media, it's most often not the case.
Streaming torrents directly or through real-debrid doesn't help preserve media at all. Leeching only without keeping torrents alive also doesn't keep media accessible.
Some people might store media for a few decades and then reupload, but most people never create new torrents.
I'd say the pirates who help preserve media are a small subset of pirates.
Yes. Searching for "DL" for dual language in the title works well for finding multilingual releases with english and german audio.
No, since bandwidth isn't free. It's necessary to pay for usenet like it's necessary to pay an ISP and a VPN provider. Their services cost them money.
All people have their priorities. For most people on this community it's probably being free of cost but for some freedom is also important.
I also don't recommend against using software that's not perfect according to my personal philosophy, but I think it's important to point out any advantages and disadvanages so that anyone can decide for themselves. As I said, most people on here won't care about the difference between source available and open source.
it's mostly about transparency
Good point. If they'd use the term source available I'd have nothing to say. The reason I'm so pedantic is because increasingly businesses try to gain good publicity by calling their software open source while using Business Source License and similar, which are source available licenses.
I'll definitly follow this project and look where it's going.
Thanks for the link. I'm surprised it survived Apple's review process as I thought such apps weren't allowed. Now I have a private YouTube altednative to recommend.
Tachiyomi relies on installing sources as additional apks because otherwise they'd have to update the app daily. This is not allowed on Play/App Store.
YouTube ReVanced and other patched apps are also great and not obviously not possible on iOS bexlcause of restrictions.
Nothing wrong with asking LLM's about topics, I'd even say it's a good idea instead of directly asking on a forum. Just like searching before asking, asking an LLM before asking humans is good.
And mentioning where you got the recommendation for k8s is also helpful. I'm not knowledgeable about k8s, but I guess the "wtf" was about the overkill of recommending k8s when simpler solutions exist.
Unix sockets have permissions like any file, so it's simple to restrict access to a user/group and thus process running as the user. If it's unencrypted http on a server other processes could listen on localhost, but I'm unsure about that part.
