The GitHub stargazer API used by star-history.com has become unreliable. This switches the chart/links in README.md to our alternative instance (star-history.dera.page) which requires no API token and works for both API and frontend on the same domain.
- Wait until the upload progress reaches 100% before clicking publish. The
browser-based upload only progresses while the page is open, so publishing
(and closing the browser) mid-upload cut it off and left the video stuck
partway (e.g. 76%).
- Add optional YT_PROXY (conf.py): where youtube.com is blocked, direct
connections time out and the chromium does not use the system proxy, so
allow pointing it at a local proxy explicitly.
Add a YouTube uploader that follows the existing cookie-based browser
automation pattern (uploader/youtube_uploader + sau youtube CLI:
login/check/upload-video). Supports title/description/tags, thumbnail,
adding to a playlist (for series), and visibility (public/unlisted/private).
Browser automation is used instead of the official Data API on purpose:
videos uploaded by an unaudited API project are force-locked to private
and cannot be made public without Google's compliance audit, which is
impractical for personal/single-channel use. Browser automation has no
such restriction and matches how every other platform here works.
