Torrent-Tube is a set of tools to help decentralize YouTube videos, by moving them to torrents, which can be shared by many people. It includes:

• A Torrent-Tube search site which searches the Torrents-csv search engine to see if the given YouTube video already exists, and is being seeded.
  • It does this by extracting the YouTube [VIDEO_ID] from a link, which you can also do manually if you like (IE, the text after watch?v=...).
• A script to check for previously made torrents, and if there are none, then download, and create torrent files from YouTube videos, with a uniform naming style and format, taken from TheFrenchGhosty’s YouTube-DL-Scripts.
• You will need to upload these torrent files yourself to a service (details below), and seed them.
• You can also post these videos to lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/torrenttube, with the magnet link as the URL, and a webp video thumbnail contained in the videos/MY_VIDEO folder.

Future plans

• Create a browser plugin that checks a video link that you’re currently watching for existing torrents.
• Create a UI for viewing these additions. (The lemmy.dbzer0.com community works for now)-
