Thanks, I needed a laugh.

Peertube needs to really federate if it wants a fighting chance. Having to rely on Sepia Search to find videos just won't cut it for most people.

Pornhub could start Videohub tomorrow and shake things up if they really wanted to.

Otherwise there's Odysee (bad name, linked to crypto but good interface) and Peertube (federated but searches aren't* so it will never catch on), but people aren't too fond of those.

* I know about Sepia Search. People shouldn't have to use yet another website to find the videos they want on Peertube. It's stupid.

Half the time when I click an image link hosted on Discord, it turns out to be a dead link. I hope this new policy will help make them dead-er so people can finally stop using them. Discord isn't Imgur, Jesus.

I remember "gimpshop" being a thing at one point

Well it might be a different project entirely, but PhotoGIMP is still a thing.

The OP is TMNT, not Battletoads. Different green guys.

Or uYou+, if you're in the know. Otherwise Video Lite + filtering ads at the DNS level also works (if you really want a dedicated app).

I wonder when Manifest v3 will finally drop since there's no ETA anymore.

Oh, indeed! I missed the fact there was a second script. So there's one for Mlmym and another for "regular" Lemmy instances. My bad.

(It's still got the @match https://*/* that I dislike, though.)

Because it only works via the Mlmym frontend, supposedly. Give it a go: https://o.opnxng.com/lemmy.nicknakin.com/

I haven't tested it myself. I hate scripts with dodgy website checks. The author should have hardcoded the known Mlmym instances instead. (or maybe that's just a "me" problem.)

inb4 but this way the script needs less maintenance

If the Mlmym dev renames the "spacer" or "icon" classes for any reason or if he changes Mlmym's HTML structure, this script would stop working immediately.

And anyway, running a check on every page your browser visits to determine if it is a Mlmym instance or not is simply inefficient and, I'd argue, bad practice, security-wise.
