On the other hand, #brave #search has been pretty good so far.Looks like I will be looking for a new #searchengine as #duckduckgo cannot keep their original #promises https://twitter.com/DuckDuckGo/status/11.. They are now planning to #bias their #search #results about " #russian #misinformation ": https://twitter.com/yegg/status/15017164.. Who at DuckDuckGo is #qualified to be the #arbiter of #truth ?
I recently checked out #ytdlp - an #alternative or #improvement to #youtubedl https://www.funkyspacemonkey.com/replace.. This offered #significant #speedup in #downloading #youtube #videos - I really suspect that Youtube attempt to #detect the use of youtube-dl and #ratelimit it. This now means that #ytoff - my #invidious alternative loads alot faster: https://github.com/danielbarry/ytoff I will write a #coffeespace #article about it soon.

The other thing I really need to know if whether it can handle other websites too like #youtubedl can do.Seems like the #youtubedl project is struggling: https://old.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/com.. There appears to be multiple #alternatives floating around, although it is not clear which one will win out.

Really love watching this #biglez #retrospective https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOQtmJrw.. #thebiglezshow is possibly one of the best #indie #animations ever written, ever. Absolutely incredible. Tried to #archive the show from #youtube but they have screwed #youtubedl with #agerestriction functionality. On top of that there are zero available #torrents available for the show. Damn.
