Description: Add Video Streaming Section
After the discussion in #671 many users realized most torrenting based streaming clients hadn't matured enough. I hope this PR takes us in the right direction.

What is added?:

  • MediaGoblin
  • Invidio/Freetube

Worth Mentioning:

Why not LBRY or Peertube?:
https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-sdk/issues/1435 , https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/313 , plus PeerTube hasn't (or doesn't even plan) to release a WebRTC free version: https://forum.privacytools.io/t/discussion-fixing-webrtc/1226

Otherwise, I'd say go for it. But, until they fix these they aren't really for that good for "privacy".

But what about ___?: I'm open to suggestions.

  • svg icon
  • missing discussion issues that this resolves

In addition to this looking bad we cannot accept SVG due to Tor Browser if I have understood correctly. If you have imagemagick, you can convert mediagoblin.svg mediagoblin.png, you may need to pass -resize or similar flags though.

I don't understand from this description what it does, could you think of it a bit more? The website makes it more clear to me:

MediaGoblin is a free software media publishing platform that anyone can run. You can think of it as a decentralized alternative to Flickr, YouTube, SoundCloud, etc. It's also:

Also is there a discussion of it somewhere? I don't remember hearing of it before and I think we strongly prefer discussion issues first.

Also, I've added a warning to KopyKate.
As it is non-free (https://github.com/misses-robot/KopyKate-Big/issues/22) and uncensored.

It looks like KopyKate's last commit was early last year and doesn't even have any releases so I'm unsure how this is really useful to mention.

But regardless I think we should pause iterating over feedback in the PR until we've opened a new discussion for suggesting a new "Video Streaming" section like our PR checklist metnions 😄 We can also have a community discussion for what software to include.

Didn't realize there was already a lot of discussion in https://github.com/privacytoolsIO/privacytools.io/pull/671. I'm still thinking it'd be better to shift this discussion to a new Issue; determine if the section is needed plus the recommended software, then work on the PR which would then be straightforward and not have a lot of churn.

@nitrohorse The issue is there isn't any active discussion in all 3 of those.
The last actual discussion in #671 was in early May when a warning to LBRY was added.


This PR is basically just #671 without PeerTube and LBRY (with MediaGoblin)

Personally, I like using LBRY and Peertube, but neither work with TOR and aren't my #1 choice. There are open issues on both of these:
https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/1886 , https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-sdk/issues/1435 , https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/2030

If you don't think WebRTC or no I2P is an issue, then by all means #671 is a good PR.


TL:DR: If you think that you can start an active conversation, then I don't see why you shouldn't.
I just don't see this happening in the current discussions. :)

The Invidious icon is also too low res; get a higher-res version from https://github.com/omarroth/invidious/blob/master/assets/mstile-150x150.png

freetube.png should be removed if we're not using it.

Need to be converted to cardv2 (it's the layout where every card gets it's own row instead of the cards being squished into one row. Here's an example with cloud storage:

Invidious isn't just an API; it's also a front-end for YouTube as described by the description and the README of the repo: https://github.com/omarroth/invidious.

We should also make the website link to invidio.us and have the alternate instances separate. That is how searx is handled on privacytools.io

Don't downscale images. Get a svg and export is as 120x120 png.

plus PeerTube hasn't (or doesn't even plan) to release a WebRTC free version

The p2p player can be disabled in PeerTube and thus removing any privacy concerns of user's IPs being visible to other peers who are watching a certain video. Currently there are only 2 ways to disable it:

  • if the server admin has disabled it for the entire instance
  • disable it in your account settings

The feature that would allow non-registered users to disable the p2p player hasn't yet been developed https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/2271

Still I think this is a half cooked solution, without P2P there isn't much to a decentralized platform.

That's not true. ActivityPub makes PeerTube decentralized. The p2p player is there to reduce server load and save bandwidth.
