viewtube VS speedtest

As for my iPhone I now use viewtube.io (you can also self host it if you want) and I am very happy of the result.

Self-host Viewtube and silently redirect all Youtube traffic to it. 😁

After using invidious, then piped, I settled on ViewTube. https://github.com/ViewTube/viewtube-vue better UI than invidious, not as obnoxious as piped.

I run ViewTube having gone through 3 other front ends, and although not perfect, it's the best I've found for my needs. But like you say, the problem I have is I really do not give a flying funk about youtube, and wish there was a way to transparently proxy all youtube requests to viewtube. Short of as you say doing a local DNS entry for youtube and knocking up some kind of certificate, I'm stumped. I have to rely on per-client solutions like UntrackMe or PrivacyRedirect.

Slight aside: try out ViewTube as well. I was running Piped for a few months until yesterday when I found this. I found Piped needlessly complicated, but better than raw invidious. Viewtube for me is the best of both. Still not perfect, but I'm trying to set up a dev environment to contribute if I can atm.

Hi can viewtube be put into the Video Streaming section. https://viewtube.io, https://dev.viewtube.io

I recently installed OpenWRT on a TP-Link TL-WDR4300, and put the router of my ISP in bridge mode. Now I noticed that the wireless speeds are significantly slower (40mbps vs 3mbps via librespeed.org), after using OpenWRT.

Try hosting a DIY speed test on a cloud server (like Google colab or the free oracle instances or whatever):

https://github.com/librespeed/speedtest

here's the top two results if you search for "open speed test nginx reverse proxy": https://github.com/librespeed/speedtest/wiki/Reverse-proxy-with-Nginx https://github.com/henrywhitaker3/Speedtest-Tracker/issues/924

Or https://librespeed.org/

Fast.com is giving me ~ 250Mbps https://librespeed.org is giving me ~ 112Mbps the one constant between all the tests seems to be the 52Mb upload

It should be DIA. They provide the internet connection to the company since 2 decades and it's a very small ISP, so it's very vague in terms of contract. Iperf was giving me very terrible results with TCP, UDP was giving me a couple of Gbit/s throughput, definitely a wrong result. We are using this self hosted speedtest. All my results above are based on this software: https://github.com/librespeed/speedtest

Put a copy of Librespeed on a web server that's accessible through the VPN and told them to use that. For (our) convenience, it's logged into a database that's correlated with the VPN login/logout times so the users don't even need to log in to use it, but we still know whose test result it is.
