Just pushed a solid update to the KoalaSync landing page (https://sync.koalastuff.net). I've added a much-needed FAQ section, and the whole site is now available in 6 languages.
Work on the extension v2.0 is also underway, with the main goal being full localization for the extension UI itself. Meanwhile, still waiting on the Chrome Web Store to finally process the 1.8.10 update...

IT-Security-Weisheit am Abend 🌙
Open Source ist proprietärer Software in einem entscheidenden Punkt überlegen: Sicherheitslücken können von jedem gefunden und gemeldet werden - nicht nur von denen, die ein kommerzielles Interesse daran haben, sie zu verschweigen. Dass Heartbleed jahrelang in OpenSSL steckte, war kein Versagen des Prinzips, sondern ein Ressourcenproblem. Die Lehre daraus ist nicht weniger Open Source, sondern mehr Unterstützung für die Projekte, auf denen die digitale Welt aufbaut.
👋 Hi Fediverse! I'm Timo. I got tired of watch party extensions tracking data and forcing accounts, so I built an alternative: 🐨 KoalaSync.
It's a 100% free, privacy-first browser extension. No tracking, zero accounts needed. Just create a room, share the link and watch perfectly in sync. Works seamlessly with YouTube, Netflix, Emby, Jellyfin & any HTML5 video. Fully open source (MIT).
Check it out: https://sync.koalastuff.net
