I must admit that spending a few days on hacking the code to mirror the "WarTranslated 18+" Telegram channel to my #PeerTube instance was a worthy investment of time. Dmitry does great job in posting all the daily clips from #Russia #Ukraine that I usually missed or published selectively because it's something I do between morning coffee and back-to-back work calls. This is now working pretty stable - there may be hiccups as I will move it to production, but it works:
https://video.echelon.pl/c/wartranslated18/videos
This now allows me to focus on my own channel not very creatively named "Ukraine War Videos" which I will be now driving towards a truly curated archive of the conflict and its prehistory:
https://video.echelon.pl/c/ua_war_videos/videos
The idea is that when you watch one video on say the 2014 #Odesa tragedy, you will be then able to go through the whole archive of what happened there using internal links and tags, e.g:
https://video.echelon.pl/search?tagsOneOf=Odessa%20tragedy
This requires more manual work which mirroring "WarTranslated" conveniently saves me a ton! Of course, the channel belong to Dmitry in terms of all support and sponsoring, which I'm doing myself and encourage everyone to do as well.
