I’ve been running Viewtube in my homelab for my family after the actual YouTube started misbehaving. Was it because I use Firefox? DNS adblock? Unlock origin? Who knows!
I absolutely love that with Viewtube I can make the front page only my subscriptions. It seems to be relatively low on resource usage as well.
But lately, the lack of features is starting to get to me - namely closed captions and “Add to queue”.
Are there any other self hosted options that are more feature rich in this regard?
Oh snap, are you the developer of Viewtube? If so, first off - great job. I do the infrastructure side of IT for my day job but aside from some basic go, I couldn’t code something like this to save my life.
I wish I had the chops to contribute to the project.
I’m only a contributor who mainly improved the homepage. You are still helping the project by using it and giving the creator and contributors feedback!
