    Also, don’t use YouTube directly, use Invidious or Piped, and this particular issue would be gone.

    It’s the convenience. If you want to run a channel, you’re kind of damned to sell your soul. 🙃 The question is for how much you’d sell yourself out completely.

    Not sure, if these apps run on a desktop computer, though, which is my main workhorse.






  • I use DokuWiki for this type of thing. With a few add-ons it is nicely configurable (galleries, discussions etc), could be run from any webspace, and doesn’t need a database. You can have ACLs that make sure that only registered users get access. But it is a bit of a DIY solution, and takes a bit of work to set up.


  • My cheap and cheerful, but not very secure homebrew solution is a used smartphone, then load any of the motion-detection apps onto it, plus an FTP server app. Then place the phone anywhere within Wi-Fi reach. Run a script once a day on my home server that downloads and deletes the videos from the phone via FTP, and also deletes that footage after 30 days. So the “system” can run indefinitely without running out of memory. The old phones just need to be rebooted once in a while for some odd reason.
