Comment on Expanding Materialious to other platforms
Mora@pawb.social 2 months ago
I like the idea of materialious and am interested in its expansion into other projects (does proxitok even work right now?). But I would prefer it if it was more of a theme for each project instead of a new service, though adding in features aside from theming would probably be harder🤔

Yea, Materialious is a bit more complex then a theme as it has a lot of custom client side logic (Like sync parties, playlists, etc).
If I expanded Materialious you’d still be able to use just Invidious or Safetwitch etc.
But Materialious at its core would still be built of the API of giants. So it wouldn’t be reinventing the wheel for scrapping/handling data from twitch, YouTube extra.
Haven’t used Proxitok in a while, so not sure if its working currently. Seems to be in active development tho.

I used ProxiTok just yesterday, and it loaded the video fine.

I believe loading videos directly works, but discover/trending doesn’t to my understanding.

The prospect of an unified frontend for all social media is also kind of appealing, ngl😄

Yea just need to avoid it from being bloated
