Hi Jithin, this looks nice. Good job. Just a word of advice, a lot of scammers typically use techniques like these to market their scams. I get that this is your work and I'd recommend directly sharing vlca.no links instead. Telling users to insert 3 dashes between "you" and "tube", while convenient, can often come off as an attempt at scamming.
- jithinraj 5y agoHi @thallavajhula. Thank you so much for your valuable feedback and kind words. This is aimed at the users who don't want to install a browser plugin. We have a Chrome plugin (https://vlca.no/chrome https://vlca.no/chrome) and page at Volcano (https://volcano.live/embed/home https://volcano.live/embed/home) where users can paste the video URL and get the co-watch URLs too. Please feel free to check out and share your feedback. Thank you, once again. :)
- soared 5y agoThe url hack is common place for legitimate services around YouTube so I think it’s fine. I’ve used two tools that url hack and it’s very very convenient.
- jithinraj 5y agoHi @soared! Thank you so much for trying it out, glad that you liked it. :)
- midnitewarrior 5y agoUrl is a common place to modify behavior, but this is the domain name, something that doesn't get hacked because the domain name conveys trust.
- jithinraj 5y agoHi @midnitewarrior! Thank you for taking time to check this out. Points raised by you are valid. We are trying to give this as a quick solution for people who don't want to install an app or a browser plugin. Alternatively, https://volcano.live/embed/home https://volcano.live/embed/home is the page where you can insert links to start the Volcano co-watch for Youtube, Twitch & Vimeo videos. https://vlca.no/chrome https://vlca.no/chrome is the chrome plugin where you can do all the above just with click.
