Leaving my project Tubo in case someone finds it useful. Support for it just got merged on Libredirect
Since I can't read clojure: does this proxy or does it download the videos and serve them? I imagine the latter, but is there a limit? For example VPSs have tiny drives (10GB, 20GB, etc.) with a LRU cache it would be possible to use this on those things, but even on bigger hard drives, the videos have to get cleaned up eventually.
It does neither atm, it simply serves you the streams as-is. The plan, however, is to eventually proxy all requests so that the services aren't able to see it was you who made the request but only get the proxy's IP
Actually serving the streams as is is great for me. If the proxy could a toggle, that might not be bad! Especially for VPSes with low bandwidth.
