Watched Louis Rossman today, and he’s part of the team behind a new app for watching online video content - not just youtube, but nebula, peertube, twitch and more.

adblock already integrated, works amazingly with a quick test on my end - it’s an app in the Lemmy spirit

(it’s got a paid model similar to winrar, you don’t have to pay - but they do want you to - opensource and all)

    FUTO Temporary License (FTL) violates the following open-source principles:

    • Open source licenses must allow free redistribution. FTL allows license suspension and termination at any time, without notice, for any or no reason.
    • Open source licenses must allow source code distribution. FTL allows restrictions to access the code at any time, without notice, for any or no reason.
    • Open source licenses must allow modifications. FTL allows modifications only for non-commercial use, or maybe not even that. FTL dodges the word modifications here, no clue.
    • Open source licenses must explicitly allow distribution of software built from modified source code. FTL forbids distribution of software built from modified source code for commercial use.
    • Open source licenses must not discriminate against persons/groups and fields of endeavor. FTL allows license suspension and termination at any time, without notice, for any or no reason.

    The FTL enables the following practices:

    • Copyright holders can change the license terms.
    • Copyright holders can re-license everything.
    • Copyright holders can target specific groups and individuals with discriminatory license terms.
    • Copyright holders can close source everything.
    • Copyright holders can forbid specific groups and individuals from using their work.
