mpv https://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Financial-surveillance:e?r=2zW2U8ZcN8MsrJT5cgp9uunSj5LEJEDRWut
It's a talking-head video presentation on a well-known video publishing website.
Given your browser couldn't show anything useful from that webpage, @kugmo@sh.itjust.works offered a solution: just feed the URL into mpv, which happens to be excellent at playing audio/video from web pages if you also have yt-dlp installed.
Hm. The link is actually a video on odysee.com. I'm experiencing no issues on my end, and it's even letting me watch the video in a miniplayer within Lemmy itself. I'm using LibreWolf, a privacy fork of Firefox, so I don't know if this is an issue on Chrome-based browsers or not.
