I know we can't post direct link to software here but what about using base64?

No according to admin, see the comment thread in the other post

Have to say it's the right call. It's common enough that software (jdownloader2 comes to mind) will do the conversion automatically. it'd be super trivial for a bot crawling for DMCA links to add that functionality at some point.

understandable, thanks

But what if another layer was added? For example base64-encoded link to a pastebin which includes the direct link.

Seems like that'd fly.

From the link in that comment:

You can link to websites pages related to piracy. Linking to websites linking to your content (not with a 301 redirect, before you ask) is OK. In general try to keep one degree of separation between our collective groins and your links.

~~[Yes]~~. Edit. It seems that was changed

[-] AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 year ago

Admin says no, the links have to be to a middleman site without automatic redirects.

I thought db0 said b64 links were OK. It looks like that changed recently as initially there was b64 links allowed when the server was setup
