So I created an open-source Lemmy bot to reply to posts/comments with YouTube links with converted Piped links to preserve your privacy.
Piped is an open-source alternative privacy-friendly frontend to YouTube. You can watch the same content from YouTube without connecting to Google’s servers.
You can find the source code at: https://github.com/TeamPiped/lemmy-piped-link-bot
You can find Piped’s source code at: https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped
PS: I’m the author of Piped :P
Is the bot currently online looking for new YouTube links all over Lemmy, or do we need to start up our own if we’re interested in using this in a community?
Just wondering as I couldn’t see a readme on the repo to find out.
You can now try sending it a message mentioning communities in the format
!community@instance.tld
and it will try joining it :)You can find more information at https://feddit.rocks/comment/39147, it tries to look all over Lemmy, but doesn’t have enough communities to scan :/
