"Olawale Israel Ashorobi".

Of course Israel is behind it again

It looks like a scam

Yeah the non political guy who is the son of Genocide Joe. Okay dude.

A crucial use-case would be in-browser video playing from torrent-tube and currently that does not seem possible. I have been looking for an alternative to Catbox for a while and am not too fond of Streamable.

Alternatively could Lemmy get embedded support for playing Peertube videos instead of redirecting to the Peertube website and having to play the video there? Similar to how playing Imgur or Catbox videos works in embedded format without having to go to a different website.

This might not be appreciated but I am not web-technical enough to understand this back-end so I asked an LLM and this is what it said

::: spoiler LLM response:

❯ I would like to create the simplest browser-based viewer for videos uploaded to TorrentTube. Is this possible with just a browser extension (no changes to TorrentTube)?

● No.

A standalone browser extension cannot achieve this—regardless of the platform—due to two fundamental constraints:

1. Network limitations: Browsers can’t access torrent swarms directly. Extensions run in a sandbox and lack raw socket access (Manifest V3 has no socket API). The only viable option is WebTorrent over WebRTC, which requires WebRTC-capable seeders and wss:// trackers. Without changes to TorrentTube, no such seeders exist (only qBittorrent seeders are present), leaving the extension with zero peers to connect to.
2. Codec incompatibility: .mkv files aren’t natively playable by the <video> element.

Workable solutions require external components (not on TorrentTube’s side):

• A streaming gateway (e.g., webtor.io or self-hosted): The extension sends a magnet link to a server that downloads via BitTorrent, remuxes the video, and streams it via HTTP to <video>. (This is the simplest path.)
• A local helper app via native messaging: The extension communicates with a local torrent daemon streaming to localhost.

→ Short answer: An extension alone is impossible. An extension + gateway is possible (and requires no TorrentTube changes).

❯ Could TorrentTube itself implement changes to enable direct browser streaming (no gateway/helper)?

● Yes. With three specific changes, TorrentTube could stream torrents directly in the browser:

1. Seed over WebRTC: Run WebTorrent-hybrid seeders (or similar) to provide browser-compatible peers.
2. Add wss:// trackers: Modify create_torrent.sh to include WebRTC-compatible trackers (e.g., tracker.openwebtorrent.com).
3. Encode to MP4: Output fragmented MP4 (H.264/AAC) instead of .mkv (using yt-dlp --remux-video mp4).

Result: A minimal WebTorrent.js extension (or even a plain webpage) can stream magnets directly via <video> + Media Source Extensions—exactly how instant.io/btorrent.xyz works.

Key caveats:

• ✅ Backward-compatible: Existing swarms (qBittorrent) remain functional.
• ✅ No transcoding needed: The MP4 format is browser-native.
• ⚠️ Requires one persistent hybrid seeder: Browser peers vanish when tabs close, so a lightweight always-on seed node is needed (but no server costs).
• ⚠️ Format shift: .mkv → .mp4 (both formats can coexist for archival/streaming).

→ Summary: Changes 1–3 transform TorrentTube into a PeerTube-style system where videos stream directly in the browser via a simple extension.
*Want me to draft the modified create_torrent.sh (with wss:// trackers

• MP4 output) and a minimal WebTorrent content script for Lemmy?*

Key improvements: Removed redundancy ("no changes from TorrentTube side"), clarified technical terms ("hybrid seeders," "fragmented MP4"), standardized formatting, fixed "Torrenthub" → "TorrentTube," and tightened phrasing while preserving all technical nuance. :::

Do not give them ideas

Thanks I used this one for the main post. I do not use Catbox anymore since it blocks VPN. Allegedly someone started abusing it to make deep-learning stuff

Fixed

I do not want to sound too harsh, but the real victims here are Francesca Albanese and the Palestinians being genocided. Your identity is a bit of a secondary issue.

I wish the JNS would be dismantled entirely.

Alright buddy, welcome to Torrent-Tube as well then.

They probably posted this thinking they have a massive win.

Mamdani would be like a center left politician in Europe. I guess for most Americans anything slightly to the left of a Hillary Clinton is the limit of the left spectrum.

He said that Israel is doing everything they possibly can to prevent making civilian casualties. Surely he would not lie, right?

Try thinking outside of the two party system.

Of course but the argument is that Mamdani is nowhere near the edge of leftism. Politicians with far more leftist policies than him have existed and succesfully implemented many. It is not a mythical pipe dream.

Do you think the US is the entire world?

Europe is in decline. It used to have people much to the left of Mamdani who implemented the socialist policies, but neoliberalism has been slowly eroding all of Europe and it is turning into the USA.

That is why Mamdani is now center-left in Europe. In the past he would just be a centrist or even center-right with his current policies. Everything is relative.

Compare Mamdani for example to Mechelon in France and Mamdani is clearly far to his right.

Nothing because you keep yelling at them to vote for Hillary

One of the Israelis who got shot posted that he was the target of anti-Semitism and ends his message with 'Death to Arabs'
