For example, this invidious instance offers a download option for a YoutTube video, as that instance does for all YT videos:
~~https://invidious.fdn.fr/watch?v=lU4vv7qCQvg~~ (see update)
Exceptionally, if you opt to download it it merely opens a player to watch realtime. While other downloads from the same invidious instance have no issues. Why is this one getting different treatment?
update Apparently it’s an instance-specific problem with that particular video:
works → https://invidious.fdn.fr/watch?v=lU4vv7qCQvg
broken → https://iv.ggtyler.dev/watch?v=lU4vv7qCQvg
I’ve seen other instances where this particular video download is broken. AFAIK, invidious.fdn.fr is the only place where it works as expected.
First time I’ve seen this bot. I would be interested in learning how to cross-post from #kbin to #Lemmy in a way that preserves the original username the way this bot did. Is that possible without 3rd party tools? I can login to a Lemmy instance and then crosspost any Kbin thread to a Lemmy community, but then the author becomes myself, not the original Kbin author.
