Thanks for rehosting the video. Cool add-on, always good to see people explaining how to do this. (yt-dlp, and friendlier tools using it under the hood, is also useful for all kinds of websites)

That police action is absolutely egregious. I've seen plenty of police violence and other abuse, but this is an example that they had to know was offensive and unnecessary. Secularism and a general freedom of religion are widely-accepted Australian national values. And to see PAG organisers among those pushed away while praying just makes it even clearer.

It's moments like this which clarify just how alienated, or simply uncaring, these officers are. At some point, they will each choose between standing with Australians or standing with governments to keep their job.

So apparently the dev included some 'companion app' which I vaguely remember installing once. I'm not sure. I don't use it often and only enabled it after seeing your comment. Some people have had issues with the app or with waterrmarks which I've never encountered. I also have no idea if this 'companion app' is open source or what it even does. So yeah, technically I warned you all.

I just saw this was already in auspol. Double posted!
