Hi, author of the Piped link bot here! I think this is meme great feedback to throw light on some issues on the experience with the bot. 😂 I’ll open an issue at https://github.com/TeamPiped/lemmy-piped-link-bot to track this later.
Should be fixed, I pushed a fix yesterday! :)
Hey, thanks for the message! I’ve fixed the issue already, which was caused by a regression in one of my changes. To prevent this from happening in the future, I’ve added unit tests for the same. Sorry for the inconvenience caused!

I think it is quite unlikely for YouTube to implement a DRM for watching videos. In anyways, we will keep fighting collaboratively as long as we can.
The most likely way YouTube probably will affect us currently is if they decide to log in wall their platform like how Twitter did.
You could try HF Code Autocomplete VSCode extension. That would allow you to use open-source LLMs like https://github.com/bigcode-project/starcoder.
Piped uses the Odysee sync API to find YouTube content already available there, and if so stream it from there. This is also written in the readme on the GitHub :)
It should be back now! I’ve migrated it to a new server earlier today since the old one had some issues.
