youtube-local VS Piped

My project here is similar: https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local

It keeps everything in the browser while still being local to the machine

I am planning to host youtube-local (https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local) on my old laptop that's running Ubuntu Server. I don't plan on accessing the instance outside the local network.

YouTube alternative frontends (web-based): - Invidious - Alternative and privacy respecting YouTube frontend. - Piped - An alternative privacy-friendly YouTube frontend which is efficient by design. - LibreTube - An alternative frontend for YouTube, for Android using Piped. - ViewTube - ViewTube is an alternative privacy-friendly YouTube frontend written in Vue.js - Youtube-Local - browser-based client for watching Youtube anonymously and with greater page performance.

FROM python:3.9 RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y git WORKDIR /app RUN git clone https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local WORKDIR /app/youtube-local RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt EXPOSE 8080 CMD [ "python", "server.py" ]

https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local It's like Invidious,but you can route your requests through Tor(if you care) and has a classic design and also has SponsorBlock,works most of the time

Been using youtube-local https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local for months if not years now, does the job pretty well.

i can recommend youtube-local with VPN for performance and privacy. Also Odysee as many Youtubers already have a channel there.

YouTube Local

Somewhat related self-plug: Self-hosted browser client for watching YouTube anonymously (Python):

https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local

It supports downloading all the raw formats (the video only ones, audio only ones, and the 360p & 720p integrated formats). More meant for watching than downloading, but some more advanced downloading features, such as merging audio+video with ffmpeg to get more downloadable qualities and auto-downloading options for playlists are planned.

What about https://codemadness.org/idiotbox.html or https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local ?

I found now that Piped includes duration in the RSS so might script around that. Wonder if Invidious could add that metadata too.

it requires either public or private Piped or Invidious instaces [1].

For Safari (macOS or iOS/iPadOS) you could look into extensions like Vinegar or StopTheMadness, although you’ll likely need to work out if they’ll conflict with your other extensions. Failing that, an Invidious or Piped instance is likely your best bet.

Sometimes a half-solution will do, like Invidious or Piped.

Try deleting all cache and cookies and update all filters from ublock origin, otherwise we need to wait for an update. You can use Piped in the meantime.
