does YouTube2PeerTube still work?
(lemmy.blahaj.zone)
never heard of it? Maybe give us a link?
Interesting thanks!
I'm not sure what youtube2peertube is. But Peertube has a feature to import and synchronize Youtube channels built in these days (needs to be enabled by the instance admin). It somewhat works. But Youtube applies heavy rate-limiting and also often blocks datacenter IP addresses and VPNs so it might not work on a vServer, just on a residential internet connection.
Yeah ive had a better time just doing one offs with yt-dl on some of my old content.
it was a tool to copy youtube videos to peertube, but all the reddit posts about it are from 5 to 6 years ago
Found it. Why don't you try the functionality that is build directly in to the Peertube server? That's what they recommend to do in the Readme. Other than that, there hasn't been any activity in yt2pt for 2 years now, so your original question remains unanswered. It might still work. You can try it as well if you like.
doesn’t work (at least not on blahaj tube)
What is that?

Oh yeah, it still works. Just if a bunch of people are doing it, they will eventually block your IP
