Do you like the Fediverse? GNU Social was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Mastodon came out in 2016, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole community has a clear, crisp vibe, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the posts a big boost. It’s been compared to :twitter:, but I think Fedi has a far much more fun, lighthearted sense of humour. In 2019, Lain released this, Pleroma (1.0.0), their most accomplished server. I think their undisputed masterpiece is “cofe”, a meme so catchy, most people probably don’t see the full posts. But they should, because it’s not just about the pleasures of caffeine, and the importance of fun, it’s also a personal statement about the developers themselves!

So, I bet some of you have encountered the sudden and random low speeds coming out of youtube-dl as of late. Turns out, it wasn’t cause of some peering or server issue, it’s purely yet another undocumented change in youtube causing throttling for youtube-dl:

https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/29326

Luckily a solution exists if you use the yt-dlp fork:

yt-dlp [youtube_url] --extractor-args youtube:player_client=android --throttled-rate 100K

@cell I've noticed this happen in NewPipe as well; some videos struggle to buffer adequately regardless of quality setting. Up to now I've been using Invidious instances since they seem to be unaffected by the issue.
