Or this base link for filtering :youtube: :
redirect.invidious.io

Music I edit (example + send me link to your chosen track!) 

I do edits / subtle remixes of music - mostly to accentuate or hit those parts we love - so not to change it all completely. Simple cuts, volume fades into sections, avoiding repetitions and some wave effects if justified from lacking of transition in original etc.

⬇️ TLDR = MP3 EXAMPLE ⬇️
bin.dembased.xyz/theblacklotus

If you want me to edit something please send me youtube link via filter (use invidious.fdn.fr or any from list at redirect.invidious.io )

=============
EXAMPLE BELOW
+ HOW I DID IT
=============

Here's my shortened version of
The Black Lotus - Eon (download expires in 1 week)
bin.dembased.xyz/theblacklotus

Original here invidious.fdn.fr/watch?v=roASI
(intro is too long for casual play for example + other stuff)

====================
Here's what I did (summary):
====================
1/ It was stereo with one side for some instruments only and I prefer a united central sound so I don't hear less on one side and it's amplified together. so made it mono very easy and now even sound distribution.

2/ Trimmed beginning intro, only serves video mostly and this jumps in for the casual use to give you the 'hit' and rhythm you need every time faster than waiting.

3/ In the middle there's an airplane hit around 1.50 of my version and the volume is very low in original and underrated.
In my audio I made almost a diamond volume shape with higher in and higher out diamond so overall you imagine in a night club that that's the middle of track and you totally lose your mind from that point and have your "closed eyes" moment as the bass hits and piano hits you constantly with it's empty notes until it goes deeper after that with a constant, almost breakbeat, helicopter rhythm.

I love this instrumental.

4/ I put things on loop usually so this track is fairly loopable (the end fades out, and then the start is almost the same). There is is a bit of a volume difference but I forgive this edit so it's start is not too low if played between other music tracks - it means business coming in from first second..... boom... bap... ... boom... bap...bap...

5/ Overall some parts were criminally low or too long and made track shorter (which is usually better for 4+minute stuff)

Other examples of edits are when they have jump in's that are too quick, so flatten them.
What is too brutal I make more harmonious with it's own sound (it sounds cruel to edit someone else's professional retail track BUT as fan you know those 1 or 2 parts that is not their sound or simply what the fans enjoy most),

Using low tech and also some more obvious effects (which can be adjusted if you like later) I re-make for a kind of euphoric all-day track and sometimes fitness "high" feeling to keep you going (works with HIIT High-Intensity Interval Training)...

Invidious = from :fediverse:

YouTube + Google Links invading Fediverse!... Is that ok? 

Do you understand how links INSIDE FEDIVERSE :fediverse: = tracking / mining / analytical stats for them?

Fediverse is basically offering itself for dinner and cash to !! 🥩 🍽️ :google: :youtube:

(less commercial links would be good, *maybe* :peertube: or invidious.io filtered links?)

Picture: Admin and Makers MUST consider Google, else get absorbed directly or through it's users - IT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH AND HAZARDOUS NOT TO FOLLOW THROUGH YOUR OWN NON-PROFIT ETHOS (i.e. Encourage USERS similar open source filtered links or understand linking fediverse = mining, tracking etc)... Right now it's invisible and some will follow because Eugen /

Mastodon's creator said so -
Educating the masses at least and as standard part of your software... ?

= ➡️ invidious.io

finally allowing Low Quality options available again. Duh, save money and energy!

Low res / Low Bandwidth... Saves the planet. And if often not needed 720p HQ defaults - so stupid... (developer and user) and seems they might have implemented remembering the last settings instead of defaulting back to HQ/HD!

Actually that remembering might just be the Invidious version of YouTube (e.g. yt.cdaut.de)

HD = Headache unless really *needed*

LQ = Less-data Quality !

# PeerTube

Going backwardƧ FA$$$$$T by using Google & YouTube (without privacy filter sites...) 

Using is like being used / abused and mostly about making them more money

Sometime I feel you're going backwardƧ FA$$$$$T using Google & YouTube without privacy filter sites...

I would prefer educating yourself more or improving habits in others as more of the main focus and activity as Google only without actually *improving people / their habits* is surely bad)

Use proven filters / redirects...
e.g. for
redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=

Use Less or more sites

Mastodon users posting for-profit links are against some of the ethos...? [use Invidious more-private links to same pages?] 

Mastodon users posting for-profit links are against some of the ethos...?

There are tons of links here and they supply tons of adverts, tracking, ! Problematic no?

Q. Are for-profit links comparable with the Mastodon ideology or am I totally wrong in asking?

We could work more actively inside system to non-profit / free ideology...
- more warning tips by design or education
- better promoting of PeerTube or Invidious even if still using YouTube, can still filter it using Invidious)

Basically not letting Commercialism in (again & again)
+ even not feeding our people and 100,000,000 links to YT !

(or say 13million if there are 13million users per day posting 1 Google YoutTube link x how many clicks each post gets!)

Doing le$$ direct youtube.com links literally save$ the world from the money they gets and use against us- e.g. use:

redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=

Fediverse or Google - Which more?... CHOOSE LIFE!... ( LE$$ Google? )... 

A Fediverse game-changer I believe. Fediver$e (or Fediverse) ?

LE$$ Googl£ link$$$$$

More open source software / FOSS like Invidious

Fediverse or support Google more

What do you think?

Do you choose life? invidious.fdn.fr/watch?v=0q27I (music)

@invidious

Example - Mastodon etc to give option to use Invidious links or educate at least @Gargron



How can alternative links can be made popular?... boost this if you agree on the example below!

Example (below) is filtered by software to take out the adverts and junk code...

redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=

so even if links like these are strange to you or others - it is only *at first*... and this is how it works to make the alternative popular and even standard / defacto!

1- you pump out the alternative links personally (not being a hypocrite)

2 - people try it more often from lack of choice
(make *all your links* are invidious)

3- as others catch on from trying it more they find it less strange as they use it and as other they respect use it...

4- then they become a source of links themselves in their own profiles or life (copying and pasting more politically / wanting to be more aligned / showing they care not to pump google / youtube and instead help filter the crap if they have to use BigTech and it's monster money making)

5- and then others try it in the same way and repeat this process to actually continue the wave of education to others also... :)

:) :YoshiHappy: (:
You are more than just a user right?

People will be more curious and then try it, and after trying it even copy links or political show they agree by copying links.

please!

Time Jump Videos by X secs / X mins ---> Just Add to URL --->

&t=2m22s....

Quick Example / Template URL for your Mastodon links:

1st link = video starting at 30mins 55s (also add thumbnail to Mastodon posts)

invidious.projectsegfau.lt/wat

2nd link = redirects to other Invidious servers (incase 1st video link is down / not working)

redirect.invidious.io/fVhBOcUv

----------------------
More explained below
----------------------

For videos to starting exactly at 2mins 22s then add to URL:

&t=2m22s

Also works in seconds

&t=142s

Both ways gets you exact timing!

*** 1st way is more human readable / easier human input ***

Example recently:

invidious.projectsegfau.lt/wat <--- long way around until I found the shorter way below!

invidious.projectsegfau.lt/wat

Starts video from 31mins55secs Just multiply required minutes by 60secs
---> or just add ---> &t=30m55s :)

WORKS FOR INVIDIOUS VIDEO LINKS....! BUT RECOMMEND ALWAYS ADDED 2ND LINK FOR REDIRECTION (in the case first link doesn't load so user can access all servers) + TIME JUMP still:

redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=

Happy Time-Jumping.

HARD not to watch videos endlessly (am I right?).... AND THEN saving the videos!!... everything is so worth keeping... BOOST if I'm right!... 

So hard not to watch and save - even for great education as videos... and more 'safer' ways of watching Google/Youtube videos is possible via Invidious
( invidious.io/ ) ... but still I have to be careful not to over-watch and decide what my real plan is! (which takes a while and needs time to reshape and reform it!)

So I do appreciate there is a better way of watching but still the consumption and addiction maybe is the same ( sitting and clicking from one to another video ) even for learning I'm aware it's too much even for my unending appetite! I know a lot of it already or the source of trouble (which is what I want to do live/living it/lovingly do and not watch/stay static/watch screen all the time/more computers).

The interface makes it so easy to never-ending jump around (in YouTube / Invidious.io) ... so I'm trying to move on as much as possible with finding other things to do for tangible change... (it's not easy let me know if you find something)

MY MAIN POINT:
IT'S DIFFICULT NOT TO CLICK AND NOT TO SAVE MORE AND MORE...
BOOST IF YOU AGREE!

SUB-POINTS:
- not the 'all-you-can-eat' American servers
- not the 'all-you-can-eat' content I have seen or heard already
- not using from BigTech or even smallTech using mass hardware and energy...
- not encouraging others / already enough... about 1 day of video uploaded and added to YoutTube every hour :/ - that's 576hrs of vid per day... 24days of content in 1day :/

YES I appreciate something is there for at least some damage limitation,
but as a habit no (I want change and my wants to be served in life).

If you agree boost me for that (even if you want to continue watching it's your choice to be conscious while clicking!)...

From the energy and infrastructure point of view it's all a lot of war (even without current situation as a theme - it's always been , , manufacturing, smoke, replacing, hardware failure, paralysis, money in for everyday people who maybe don't like U$A based stuff but still invite it. Just to many things that make it too easy and easy to say " ENOUGH! ")

@invidious

I've probably encouraged you to look now by putting links but also boost me if you couldn't resist the click to show that it's difficult when you get a link right?

BOOST IF YOU AGREE
ABOUT YOUR OWN LIFE AND TRYING NOT TO GET SUCKED INTO JUST WATCHING!!
