Hi! Youtube now uses HTML5 so you don't really need gnash to view your vids but that still needs javascript activated if I understand it correctly. This page will give you info:
https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/play-videos-without-using-flash
I like minitube and quite recently even more SMPlayer with SMTube.
Try it - with those applications you watch and download vids from YT without the use of a browser which results in increased performance..

I suggest you follow onpon4's tutorial at:

Even if you use javascript, this tutorial will help you watch youtube videos.

Indeed that is about Youtube and alternatives that are Free Software compatible, but this forum should be under Youtube forum folder. Do we have that folder available? No we don't!

By Reading the community forum guidelines, Some of guidelines could be read and interpret very differently.
It is not specific and still vague with generalization. Thai is just my opinion, everyone else is entitled to their own.

All I'm asking is a little bit of reorganization with More alternative forum folders. It will be good For any user to post properly in their proper forums, as need it.

That will help, folder indexing and topic location, avoiding the over crowding of the main forum, it will help at the long run.

Everything has its rightful place. Yet, If the admins of this Trisquel website, don't mind non-related Trisquel topics to be place anywhere? Then is there headache, resources, time and money.

Specially, When downtime and maintenance schedules take longer from the normal.

This matter needs to be address properly.

Respectfully and don't scream at me. I'm all ears...

i don’t think you should of been down-voted and i didn’t down-vote you
but instead of posting lots of the same comment about how there needs
to be a different forum for off topic posts (which there rely should be)

you could try using this page as we currently don’t have a off topic fourm

When will people learn that OPINIONS should NOT be DOWNVOTED??
Good lord...
Is it so hard to get when you're supposed to click on that minus button?

//edit
Formerly, Jodiendos post was marked in red, i.e. a minimum of three people downvoted him. That was the reason for my anger...
obviously three people upvoted and now you can't see the red mark anymore.

Honestly, I don't care if it's his/her opinion when they cluster the whole forum with the same stuff. I click the minus button when I want to.

They can state their opinions as many times as they like;
Ruben installed the system because he trusted the community to be capable of dealing with it.
he wrote repeatedly that one should NOT downvote opinions; just real, bold trolling.

If you don't like somebody's opinion and he states it a few times, that doesn't mean it's trolling.

It's not about his opinion. I never made a statement about that.

You should downvote if you read something like

"VIAGRA CHEAP SALE SALE SALE!!!!"

or if somebody violates the community guidelines like

"Hey, check out windows 10, here's my guide how to install it"

or instults like

"You +#+!"!??" .... you know what i mean... as I wrote: bold trolling/spam/violation of community guidelines.

We're not dealing with any of those cases, so Jodiendo was downvoted unrightfully.
If you care about the community and if you care about how the system is intended to be used, you will stop.

In the first case, you should "add a new comment" on https://trisquel.info/en/issues/4206 and david will remove the post/thread.
