Seems like a fresh mirror here https://gitea.eponym.info/Mirrors/youtube-dl to fork and start it over somewhere else. Gitea is a great project. Now we need someone to fork and publish it over Tor or something. Decentralized solution would be a next step.

Diff between that mirror and the one from the web.archive.com looks good. I.e. no hidden/evil things inside. Looks safe to start over.

I've created http://youtube-dl-sources.org/ with links to a static torrent and IPFS content.

It's not much but I would like the sources to be easily accessible.

I would like to add that Git works over I2P which will render it anonymous https://geti2p.net/en/docs/applications/git
Thank you.

I have created the repo at Darktea, feel free to create your anonymous accounts and join the project, until we find a better/decentralized place.

For now this should be sufficient:

I will give the main contributors the neccessary access for reviewing/merging/etc.. or will entirely hand over the project if you can prove you are the maintainer.

I put one up at https://kylheku.com/cgit/youtube-dl

This server uses git 1.7.x, so people with old installations can easily clone it.
