Future of this service
Hi
I really love this project. I gives me a convenient way to embed 3rd party content into my CMS / LMS content. Unfortunatelly it seems to be unmaintend for some time. Even very low hanging fruits like a broken URL (https://github.com/leedo/noembed/issues/102) are not fixed.
I'm willing to help to keep this project alive. For this purpose I created a fork here: https://github.com/noembed/noembed
The new home includes also an updated Docker config: https://github.com/noembed/noembed-docker
This is no attempt to hijack the projects. I'm willing to commit to the original projects if their authors @leedo @nicopace decide to continue the maintenance. In this case I will remove the fork.
I'm still looking for a place to host the service.
Awesome that you forkd... it is a healthy approach. I haven't done much contributions there, and not going to maintain it either... Good luck!
By any chances some of you know how you can get your thumbnails updated on the CDN ? It looks like if you update it on the different platforms, the service never fetches them again.
Thanks @tomgross. I've tested tour fork and it fixes https://github.com/leedo/noembed/issues/115 for me.
The point would be to host it. @nicopace, do you know how is noembed.com currently hosted? Would be possible to switch to the new oembed/noembed repository (thr fork by Tom)?
I don't know, I always hosted it myself. I am not the maintainer, but an old user (that doesn't use it anymore). good luck with it!
Here's an alternative oEmbed app written by me in JS and can be easily hosted on Cloudflare workers which includes a generous free tier. https://github.com/playerxo/oembed
It's inspired by noembed and the code structure is based on it but it's targeted only for media platforms with audio and video players. Feel free to use the API or fork the project.
