A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Saw the video… It mentions ”ripping” and even shows clips of some blockbuster movies. No wonder any copyright-sensitive automation gets triggered pretty fast. This will only get worse.

I think if the ripping includes de-DRM-ing it's is illegal in a lot of countries. I am not saying it's right, we should own our own content, I am just saying it as a fact.

What if I decide to digitize my entire movie catalog? I would have to rip those DVDs and blurays...

[–] Schlemmy@lemmy.ml 2 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Yeah. That's illegal in lots of countries.

But it is legal in the country he lives in as well as the country YouTube is headquartered in.

Is it? I'm not totally sure, as I'm not from the US but I think the DMCA is the nasty player in this game.

A lot of people don't realise that the application of the VCR was technically copyright infringement, especially so when you lent tapes to your friends.

Pretty fast? The video was uploaded in 2024.

”Pretty fast” after they tuned those automations to the current setting. And they will keep turning it that way unfortunately.
