The underlying cause of #419 is the default utf8 collation in MySQL/MariaDB, which only supports the base plane of Unicode (\u0000-\uffff). By changing the collation to utf8mb4_general_ci, stuff like ban reasons and profile text may have emoji and other non-base-plane Unicode. The charset for playlist titles is NOT changed, and non-base-plane characters are replaced by question marks. This is because switching to utf8mb4 would make the primary key too long. |

About
CyTube is a web application providing media synchronization, chat, and more for an arbitrary number of channels. I began developing this as a hobby project, and when synchtube.com announced their closure, I began polishing it and readying it for the public.
I am hosting a CyTube server at http://cytu.be
The serverside is written in JavaScript and runs on Node.JS. It makes use of a MySQL database to store user registrations, cached media metadata, and data about each channel.
The clientside is written in JavaScript and makes use of Socket.IO and jQuery as well as the APIs for various media providers. The web interface uses Bootstrap for layout and styling.
Features
- Standalone web/socket.io server
- Optional SSL support for socket.io and the account API
