fraction of the cost
This is the part where Ted Faro pivots from "saving the world" to war machines?
I find that feed thing unusable, I had to make significant efforts for it to stop showing shorts, premium ads, channels I'm not interested in, AI generated stuff, games (there are games now on youtube...), and it still doesn't show me anything worth watching. If only they took a page out of tiktoks book - not the shorts page pls
I knew about yt-dlp, was looking at ways to automate that, but apparently that's done too with the other ones, thanks
You make a good point about downloading... I rarely venture past my subscriptions list, I could just download their videos automatically and watch through Kodi or something
It's much more responsive on my machine when I disable windows search indexer and superfetch (which I do anyway)
Well I also do software engineering for a living, except I don't just spam out a bunch of bullshit that has nothing to do with the project we're talking about. "create the algorithms to parse and massage the raw data" my fucking sides... "front end GUI" as opposed to... backend TUI? If you knew anything about your job you'd see that most of the inner workings of the site is very well documented with multiple libraries ready to go for like 90% of the functionality. Just because you chicken out of anything that your precious LLM would deem too hard doesn't mean everyone is else is a bad coder. Nothing would ever get made if people were like you.
Just FYI, I literally never said there's nothing special about the site, that's your halucination. I ASKED if there was anything special that would prevent recreating the functionality, but I know how hard it is for you to read. I wonder how you cope with a Jira ticket that's longer than two sentences...
I thought fucking karmawhores with their dumbass opinions would stay on reddit...
Sounds like you're the perfect candidate to do nothing about it and let the existing platform be enshitifed with providing nothing in return. Good luck with your defeatism.
That's kinda what I was trying to point to. Yes it is a lot of work to replicate the functionality, but apparently Valve has no intention of "plugging the hole" this data is coming from, and I'm not sure NexusMods would have any ability to torpedo any potential alternatives as they also depend on a third party. So if/when the original enshitifies it would be possible to move on to a new platform.
What's special about SteamDB that no real, fully fledged alternatives showed up yet? What would prevent someone from "forking" it?
We just had news about Bilibili going global, and their reaction is to increase prices even further?
Why are these hosted on Github? Wouldn't a self hosted repo on an obscure VPS host be harder to take down?
Edit: Nvm, others already mentioned this.
