I do like the idea of a P2P system. I used to be on ZeroNet but there were just too few people and too little content to stick with it. I hope something like this takes off.

You’re welcome :)
A great app. I use the (FLOSS) LibRedirect browser extension to automatically send YouTube links to FreeTube.
Basically, yes. EEE is a strategy developed by a dominant company whose revenue stream came from paid proprietary software and services but which embraced open standards with the goal of vanquishing the threat to their business model posed by that openness and maintaining/recovering their proprietary domination.
Does ActivityPub being open and used by many different projects & organizations pose a threat to Piefed’s business model? Is Piefed a powerful company that built that power on a proprietary model and seeks to preserve that power by embracing, extending, and extinguishing ActivityPub? With the goal of maintaining/recovering proprietary domination?
No. So it ain’t EEE.
KDE Connect
I’ve used it a lot just to control audio or video playing on my computer from my phone. (Sometimes when I’m sat at my computer with multiple windows and workspaces open, I even find it easier just to hit my phone’s lockscreen to pause the music.)
I’m starting to use some of its other features, too. E.g. copying & pasting and sharing files between phone and computer.
There’s more too I need to explore.
(Unfortunately, sometimes I get a ‘device unreachable’ error when both devices clearly have a working connection to the same router.)
Upvoted for FreeTube.
What do you use to send YouTube links to FreeTube? Personally I’m using LibRedirect https://libredirect.github.io/
My software chops begin and end with: 10 PRINT “HELLO, WORLD” 20 GOTO 10
Good to hear devs are working on it.
Thanks for the info.
In the meantime, I opened a new tab, input my instance, waited for the home page to load, searched for ‘elena rossini’, compared the top two results (her channels?), went with one, looked at its list of videos and saw that it didn’t include the video in question, went back, chose the other account and discovered it has zero videos.
???
Saw your reply, tried new search: “Introducing the Fediverse”… 471 results with hers not visible among the top results. Ain’t nobody got time for that.
Looked again at your reply, copied that video link that you originally gave and searched… and it works! (Although… how did you get it? I can’t see it anywhere else.) Finally I can upvote it. Sheesh!
Also, tried searching for “fedifuture@videos.elenarossini.com”
???
So, there’s a chance of me being able to eventually interact with the video… if someone else somehow finds an underlying URL and helpfully gives it to me and I then copy and paste it into my instance’s search bar.
Meanwhile with content on every non-fediverse social network, it just takes one click to reach and interact with it (comment, upvote etc).
A social network system that breaks the basic building block of the web, the link, seems to be shooting itself in the foot. I hope the fediverse comes up with a much more user-friendly solution soon.
I’m still new to the Fediverse; how do I view that link in my home instance of Peertube (peertube.wtf) so that I can save, upvote, comment etc?
I’m also interested. Every now and then, I try to find one.
The last time I think it was Fasto TV Lite from this list:
But IIRC it just would not go full screen (you need to buy the full version for that I think) and I soon uninstalled it.
And the last time I tried IPTVnator on Android, it couldn’t handle a large playlist, like IPTV-org.
ATM I’m using a proprietary app, Televizo, or the website https://tv.garden/ .
