Thanks for sharing.
#FedilabSuggestion (bookmark).

A small update of #TubeLab for German users. We removed the default instance that was down. Unfortunately, we cannot push that version on F-Droid.

We have some server issues, that's why the translation feature is down from time to time.
We made some changes so that these down times will be as short as possible without manual actions.

@tromino
No they never blocked the app. That was about Fedilab, they kindly asked us to remove their instance from the Peertube tab.

@Blort
Yes, it's a UX fix. People can switch even if the main instance is down.

Currently #TubeLab receives a lot of one star ratings due to the default German instance which is down for weeks.
We replaced it with the default one peertube.social

Currently, the #Fdroid version is locked due to this issue: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/issues/2278

We are waiting a go after our fixes. We built the library from scratch (it's used for the torrent support).

Please, be patient we should be able to publish the fix soon.

@randy Hi. Currently, we didn't check how to embed these instances.

@dheadshot Thanks for warning us, it should work now.

@lig
It seems the error happened before reaching your instance otherwise it should have been stored when it failed.
One solution would be to store messages before and delete drafts if they are successful sent. #FedilabBug

@lig
Ouch, was the message store in your drafts? Otherwise, it's a really bad UX.

For Fedilab, make sure these options are turned on.

The problem will be solved when they will renew their certificate.

To German users of #TubeLab, the default instance for your country is https://peertube.at/, unfortunately this #Peertube instance is down. That's why you get an error.
You can pick up another instance that matches your expectations thanks to the instances picker. Look at media descriptions for details.

PS: We don't maintain this instance.

You can even use it with your Mastodon or Pleroma accounts. That will allow you to comment on videos.

#TubeLab is an open source Android app for #Peertube
You can get it on #Fdroid https://f-droid.org/packages/app.fedilab.tubelab/
Or on Google https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.fedilab.tubelab

Both versions already support casting on Chromecast.

Would you like that we introduce a feature for #TubeLab that allows to cast on your smart TV?

@mondstern
We are going to bring last fixes. I flag this one #FedilabBug
