How is this relevant to Linux? FF release notes get posted here, as FF is the de facto standard browser on Linux distros. Vivaldi isn’t.

I do not want to judge on Vivaldi, I am merely questioning its relevancy to the community here.

No matter how you extract the code, this will be hacky. The problem with this approach is that you are entirely dependent on the YouTube backend. They will not notify you when they change their code/API. They will not comment their code.

In the past, this has led to a considerable development investment of projects like NewPipe where they have to fix somethong every few months as there is a backend change.

I am still thinking about your problem, but I am unsure whether the approach of extracting from JS works (mid term).

Why not do the steps you outlined above as a macro on your keyboard? This eliminates the need for JS. To extract the video URL, you could use some RegEx automatically or Ctrl+F. Just some thoughts. I am still invested into this weird request :)

I have a lot of university stuff going on but I will try in the next week or so. If I don’t respond, DM me.

Windows 7 -> Windows 10 -> Mint -> Kubuntu -> Arch -> Fedora -> Mint -> Fedora.

I am aware of that possibility, but a truly FOSS MOBA would be amazing. Custom balancing on different servers, different queues, etc.

Thank you for the reply! I did not want to be mean, rather explain why many people would downvote this post. Welcome to Lemmy!

I am not a fan of at best non-descriptive, at worst clickbait titles with one-sentence post bodies.

I noticed a few users starting to do this and it annoys me to no end. You don’t need to put a link in every comment

That’s fair. I feel like that would be a more valid criticism.

Not to mention anything posted on the internet is effectively public domain

Well, no.

Thank you for providing the technical answer here, as well as the warning.

But Android has far more users than FF.

Cool idea! THis should be more broadly discussed. After some discussion here, where could we share it with the F-Droid community? Is there a forum or such?

My five cents: The problem I see is account stuff. You can use F-Droid without an account, and do not want to require an account for ratings. Yet, having no accounts, it is incredibly easy to manipulate votings.

I would probably prefer a “Git Issue”-like thread for every app, where you have to register. This allows for

• Deeper conversation, more insightful reviews, instead of “3 starts, UI ugly” (let’s face it, this is not the reason why we use F-Droid)
• Pointing out code lines in the source code. This could help with bug fixes, malicious stuff, etc.
• …

In how far? I think it is actually a valid criticism of a very strongly opinionated take.

I guess it is somewhat like paying in cash for your groceries: While anonymous, only you buy at this time of the day your favourite 3 food products, a cup of gluten-free instant ramen and a period product.

I would be concerned about this scenario:

• Company X has your TV data (but doesn’t know your name, etc)
• Company Y, Z, … know your name and have data on you.
• They buy/share/whatever data and intersect it. Now they can probably connect the data they have on you.

Are you actually using <500 searches per month?

Mine are:

• Dec 2023 ~350 so far
• Nov 2023 ~850
• Oct 2023 ~1100
• Sep 2023 ~1400

Wait, does FF on Android only support Manifest v3 extensions?

Same. The cost point ($10) is a bit … weird, but it is actually appropriate.
