I’ve Invidious hosted on my Little Raspberry Pi 4, and using it’s WPA app on every device I got.

Zero ad + Decent UI + Access to highest video quality

Will this change on YouTube's side affect Invidious instances?

[–] tfw_no_toiletpaper@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

I wonder too.

If they go full "only google certified browsers and clients" I will just not watch youtube anymore

Heads up, "I've" is not grammatically correct when "have" is your verb. Using "have" in a contraction when you're using past-perfect tense. For example, "I've been" is an acceptable shortening of "I have been".

Is it actually incorrect? I don't think it's necessarily wrong, but it just sounds bizarre or Shakespearean if you use it when it's not an auxiliary verb.

"I've no need for that." is a perfectly cromulent sentence.

Yeah, not "incorrect," just non-standard. The yardstick is: did your interpretation match the intended one? Clearly, he was able to get there so it's firmly in "acceptable use." Any further whinging about grammar is likely to just be construed as gatekeeping.

I'm a prescriptivist and I think it's fine. I suspect it might be a British vs American English thing.

As a native BrE speaker I’d say “I’ve X installed” is a little weird, fine in speech but written down it doesn't look right. “I’ve installed X” is fine.

I think that's just you. There's a few examples of rules in English that aren't required to get a point across, but sentences that break them sound grating. One such example is adjective order

I think you're conflating correctness with comprehension. Even if it isn't correct, you could still be understood.

Per your previous comment:

Clearly, he was able to get there so it's firmly in "acceptable use."

I'm not the one conflating the two concepts.

[–] bhamlin@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago

Don't worry, one day you'll understand.

Since this change from google I have constant buffering issues on my home invidious instance, need to try updating my docker when I get home.
