Coincidentally, FFM peg is also something you can find on the hub

I'm actually amazed by how the Pornhub and Xvideos players, after all this time, are still better than the Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok players, like it's not even comparable. The way people can just accept whatever slop any corporate will feed them is just insane to me...
maybe I'm missing out because I don't watch content on pornhub, but how good does a video player need to be? it's a video player, seems like a solved problem to me.

My ass read this as mpreg for a second

Well, video streaming was AFAIK pioneered by porn sites, though not necessarily pornhub, but it could be seen as a representative
oh yeah, the early html5 video days

It needs to work

Decent buffering, decent scrubbing with thumbnail preview, double tap to skip 10 sec forward or back, proper fullscreen on desktop, and orientation on mobile. That's just to cite the very least. Imagine how good the YouTube player is, and how smoothly it works 90% of the time. Pornhub works that smoothly 100% of the time, with 90% of the features.
TikTok doesn't even let you scrub, at all.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]- no ads or sponsor crap (sponsor only if sponsor is <5s and only at the start of vid)
- buffering is efficient and quick
- subtitles available in widescreen, small etc
- can change volume and resolution
- can be judged by community with a non-karma system
- little to no algorithm or AI slop
- can custom select videos (by date, popularity, tags, or whatever)
- peer to peer, decentralised and FOSS
- privacy friendly
- can download, usable offline
- none of that copyright bullshit
In short, a no-nonsense normal video player without a profit motive.

Sure, maybe in the same way that the Ford Model T-500 is a solution to the problem of automobiles.
Pornhub is a car from the 201Xs. And most other media players are varyingly from 1960 and 2025, i.e. out-of-date and over-engineered.

Iirc PH was first with the thumbnail pop up when hovering over the timeline. They also had the "waveform" thing of where users watched the most. Sure a video player is just a video player. But all the extra features like changing quality, playback speed, buffering tech, subtitles, and so much more really add up to a better experience.

Changing licence is harder then you would think.
Yup. Just imagine them changing it the other way on a whim.

I like the implication that pornhub is the foundation upon which all social media was born.
The Internet was made for it ig.
That's p*rnhub

is it really censorship if you turn an innocent little o into goatse

Self-censorship is the worse censorship.

Fuckin A right

Why don't they change the licence of FFMpeg to GPL so that everything uses it is open source? It'd be a win-win.
Then all these companies just wouldn't use it and would use something worse instead. Everything will be inferior and ffmpeg becomes less prominent and loses out on contributors and donations. It's a lose-lose.
Reality is complicated, GPL is awesome for a lot of things but in some cases it can hinder adoption.
