Hosting provider Uberspace has suffered another setback in a German court. The court of appeal ruled against youtube-dl’s former hosting provider, holding it liable for alleged violations of YouTube’s copyright protection measures. The owner of the company is currently considering further appeal options. Meanwhile, youtube-dl remains available on GitHub.

      In English we have an idiom, “same shit, different day,” which means dealing with the same sort of unpleasant task until it’s routine. Do you have something similar?

      This Hamburg court thing sounds like something I’d call “same shit, different pay,” which would be like when you have an issue with your boss so you appeal to their boss, and find out that they’re just as bad except they’re higher in the organization.

        We have “immer/alles der gleiche Scheiss” which can use behind statement to say something is same for few time already and not nice. Example: “Kupplung durchgebrannt? Immer der gleiche Scheiss” for “Clutch broken? Always the same shit” when a lot of car come into repair, all have broken clutch. Sometime also indicate getting tired of it be same.

        But i think can be used in way of “same shit, different day” for task. Not know if used often.
