I spent some time last weekend working on an AGPLv3 video player in Angular[1]. It doesn't require any server side, but it does display much of the metadata in the metadata archive. This seems more achievable than a peertube instance to me, as peertube wants to store all the videos which we've already put online somewhere in its own private storage system, which to me seems like a waste of space and bandwidth. I'm hoping this might be useful somewhere down the road, but it still needs a few features to be implemented to be really handy; notably, it currently doesn't have an angular routing module, which means that it kinda sorta breaks the back button, and you can't deeplink to a particular video. <https://angular.io/>. Unfortunately, it's not in Debian yet, because JavaScript, but once the dependencies are packaged, I might fix that. -- To the thief who stole my anti-depressants: I hope you're happy -- seen somewhere on the Internet on a photo of a billboard
