 unixfox | for me the script should be accessible to everyone, I have seen that it's not only the public instances that are blocked but private ones too.
if there is a way to depend on as little dependencies as possible then we should do it. when I wrote this script I went out of my way to have it with as little dependencies as possible.
hence why I made it to store temporary data in a file instead of using sqlite or any local database.
really this script shouldn't be too complicated to understand, use and install. I'm not trying to make it the best script to evade restrictions through IPv6. if there is a need to do have it as powerful as possible then let's create another repository with a separate script | 14:29:54 |
 Midou | worst case make a script that explains what it does for the user with a first question: "do you know what you're doing?" | 14:30:58 |
| unixfox | based on the fact that my todo is to make it automatically discover existing network configuration and having it to deal with that, it goes against trying to dissuade people from using it | 14:35:42 |
 TheFrenchGhosty | unixfox: question: why Python and not bash? | 14:37:48 |
| unixfox | it's too complicated to deal with ipv6 routes in bash. | 14:38:52 |
| Midou | also python is more convenient to work with than bash | 14:39:52 |
| Midou | for more complicated work | 14:40:01 |
 Samantaz Fox | I'm on par with unixfox here. the script should be as simple to use as possible. There is no reason to make it harder. | 14:47:54 |

| Samantaz Fox | It has been made by one of the public instances maintainers | 15:28:50 |
| Samantaz Fox | you'll need to adapt it to your needs though | 15:29:03 |

https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/pull/4591 TRANSLATION was needed by weblate if I remember correctly | 16:20:09 |
| TheFrenchGhosty | It's not for users, but for the weblate ownership checker... maybe | 16:20:46 |

| TheFrenchGhosty | Samantaz Fox: When do you plan to merge the PR that fixes comments? I've used it for 2 days now via the test instance and it just works perfectly | 16:43:31 |

Samantaz Fox: When do you plan to merge the PR that fixes comments? I've used it for 2 days now via the test instance and it just works perfectly It has the ready label, so presumably whenever the other pull requests with that label are also merged, so there aren't 8 different containers releases in a short space of time. | 16:48:53 |

It has the ready label, so presumably whenever the other pull requests with that label are also merged, so there aren't 8 different containers releases in a short space of time. Yeah I know that's what samantaz do, my question could basically be: "when do you plan to do a bulk merging of PRs, that include the one that fixes comment" | 16:49:44 |
