edit: Oops I submitted this to the main site and I meant to submit only to Show HN. I edited the entry to fix that. Sorry!
This is a tool I made specifically for Show HN because of a comment. This tool allows for a lookup for alternates for
a YouTube video in either Bitchute, Dailymotion, Rumble or Odysee and is a part of the TubeShift browser extension with some more info and URLs in the linked page or the TubeShift website at https://www.tubeshift.info/
Queries might take longer than a normal database lookup because BitChute is searched for an alternative if one
is not yet known.
To get discussion going here's a copy of some of the notes from the linked page:
> Hello Hacker News! A comment a few weeks ago asked for a tool that would let them query the TubeShift system to see if any videos they watch have available alternates. It look longer to make the tool than I expected but here you go. Have fun!
> I just rewrote the web services backend with an async web server implementation replacing the existing one. I expect much higher performance with much less RAM usage. Right now the web services are using up 110 megs of RAM while postgres is using up about 30 megs. I'm looking forward to seeing how the new programs handle and how the performance is with the load generated by HN. I'm trying to keep the implementation fairly light on resource consumption but still able to serve a lot of requests.

The browser extension is now open source and hosted on Github at https://github.com/altfinder/tubeshift-extension/
