For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/El Chisme

you can do this on desktop with freetube

The settings you wold need to use are:

  • Password
    • Set a password for the settings menu
  • Parental Control
    • Hide Search Bar
  • Distraction Free
    • Hide Trending Videos
    • Hide Popular Videos
    • Recommended Videos
    • Hide comments

probably still some edgecase ways to get around these that a dedicated kid could find but you can also ban videos containing specified terms and enable "Show family-friendly only" to limit what can get through even then.

Can you lock the UI and turn off the internet though?

I think all the pieces exist.

Need to package it up in a way that is pre set for this use case. Not wait for parents of toddlers to find open source projects on their own.

sorry should have specified this doesn't pre-download videos it's just a highly customizable and featured youtube frontend.
