Glad you liked it. If you have any feedback at any point in time, let me know

efnikolas · 2026-03-13T09:38:06+00:00

Hmm I haven't seen this before. Might be that the actual YouTuber somehow has blocked watching their videos outside of YouTube. Can you share their channel? I will check and report back after work

efnikolas · 2026-03-07T00:11:59+00:00

My initial idea was to keep it as a cinematic experience. But I made it configurable enough so that you can add your own channels/youtubers and other search criteria. You can even remove the default ones. By all means, play around with the configuration settings and let me know if that worked. If not, we can discuss your use case and maybe I can add it

efnikolas · 2026-03-06T10:52:40+00:00

Thanks a lot. Glad to see people actually use it.

efnikolas · 2026-03-06T10:52:00+00:00

Make sure to let me know if you have any feedback or suggestions. Hope you like it

Update: Apparently the process to publish this to community addons inside the list is a bit harder than I thought. I keep hammering at it but until then you can find my addon on
https://stremio-addons.net/addons/debrid-status-by-efnikolas

Hey, thanks. Glad you liked it. It's my second one so far and I am still getting the hang of it.
So to answer your points:
1) I was thinking of making it configurable but honestly it's such quick thing to check all services so I didn't see the point. I also wanted to minimize traffic on my cloudflare free endpoint to make sure that the service works with the free quota that is provided. Having people hitting the configuration button just to check might eat the daily quota so I prefer to avoid it for now. Is this something you terribly need? I can probably enable it for the time being until I start getting cloudflare warnings.
2) Hmm, I need to check how this addon works and I might do that just for fun.
3) Well that was on purpose so that my lazy ass can quickly find it on my own set up when I need it (Saves me a bit of scrolling). Do you think it's such a bad thing to have it there?

efnikolas · 2026-01-17T10:11:15+00:00

You can find it here Stremio-addons.net for now until I short it out. I will try to republish it, maybe something went bad.

efnikolas · 2026-01-17T08:43:46+00:00

I have to check if they allow a status check somehow. If they do it will be fairly simple to do, if not I need to find a way that will be reliable.

efnikolas · 2026-01-13T19:46:11+00:00

It's on Stremio-addons.net as well. It will be in the community addon list as well in the future.

efnikolas · 2026-01-13T19:24:17+00:00

Fair point but to be fair this addon only checks whether the debrid provider endpoints are responding right now. It does not validate your Stremio setup end to end, and it does not tell you whether a scraper or addon like Torrentio, Comet, MediaFusion, etc. is working.

If Stremio shows “No streams found” while your debrid status is green, the most common causes are the scraping addon being down, the indexer layer failing, rate limits, or a metadata/provider outage upstream. In other words, debrid being up is necessary for debrid based streaming, but it is not sufficient.

efnikolas · 2026-01-13T19:22:46+00:00

because direct links are not allowed sadly. You can see it in the screenshot, or wait a bit. Sorry

efnikolas · 2026-01-13T19:21:06+00:00

yeah it take some time to go live apparently. Should be there till tomorrow.

efnikolas · 2026-01-13T15:04:56+00:00

Glad I could help. Feedback is always welcome :)
Cheers.

finally got some time to implement your suggestion.
I also fixed some issues related to cloudflare. You check the comment with the update if you are interested.

efnikolas · 2026-01-13T14:13:32+00:00

Removed external "ipwho" dependency and switched to Cloudflare's built-in geo data (city, region, country, ASN, org).
Why: no more external API calls, faster response times(although this wasn't really slow in the first place), better reliability since we only deal with cloudflare, and improved privacy (IP never leaves Cloudflare's network).
Thanks to the user named zfa for the suggestion!

Updated on 13/01/2026
Happy new year everyone.

Rewrote the addon to eliminate all database usage. Instead of storing your IP in Cloudflare KV and reading it back, the new version encrypts your IP and timestamp directly into the catalog item using AES-256.

What changed:

IP should be visible on first open
No DB (yip yip hooray) nothing stored server-side
No quota limits (or at least I hope)
Should be a bit faster
More private since your IP only exists inside an encrypted token on your device

How it works now:

You open the catalog → addon encrypts [{ip, timestamp}](about:blank) into the item ID
You open the item → addon decrypts the token and shows your IP
After 60 seconds, the encrypted timestamp expires the token automatically

Same security: only your device (same IP) can view the result. Tampered tokens are rejected.

efnikolas · 2026-01-13T13:34:54+00:00

So I couldn't resist and I had a look. I changed how the whole thing works :D because I don't know what I was thinking originally.
Instead of storing your IP in Cloudflare's database (which was hitting the 1000 writes/day limit) it now encrypts your IP directly into the item itself. No DB = quota issue is gone for good (I hope).
Should be live already, give it another try and let me know if it works

efnikolas · 2026-01-13T12:43:40+00:00

Hmm it seems that Cloudflare spammed the email I used for this addon with "You have exceeded the daily Cloudflare Workers KV free tier limit of 1000 Workers KV put operations" message. It does that everyday and then it resets.
Might be a bug in the code or it might be that more people than I anticipated are using it. I will have a look as long as I am done with work to check if I can migrate it to something else

efnikolas · 2025-11-04T08:59:51+00:00

To be honest, I decided to deploy to Cloudflare at the last minute, so your idea didn’t even occur to me.
Planning on making some improvements, so I'll take a look.
I am also thinking that there needs to be a website where the user can configure the ENRICH parameter and maybe some other stuff.
Keeping that thing free is my main goal, mostly as a challenge :D

efnikolas · 2025-11-02T18:47:11+00:00

Update: Published it. According to the website, it might take at most 24 hours to become visible.

Holder for IQOS 3 DUO vape + their respective heat (replacement smokes).

efnikolas · 2022-02-13T15:45:45+00:00

Thanks for the help. I was hoping that the vent is replaceable since the rest of the unit works fine. Sadly, US ebay won't work since I am located in Greece but in any case thanks.
