## Issues from the initial attempt
- There are 2 versions of `Lbry` and `buildURI` -- the app and web-server version. There are subtle differences between them, and for the app case, importing the web-server version results in a query into an invalid URL.
- It changed the function from returning a string to returning a promise.
## Changes
- Since the new function (renamed to `fetchStreamUrl` for clarity) is currently only needed for web-server, I moved it into the `web` folder to avoid misuse in app.
- Await on the promise. Unfortunately, this also means the entire chain of function calls need to be adjusted to be `async`.

- Requires an accompanying commit in `odysee-frontend`.
- The change assumes that the `odysee-frontend` is the only project that uses these files directly, i.e. other clients will use the API instead.
## Issue 1263
Previously, we tried to inform the user that when an SDK call such as `support_create` and `publish` fails (specifically, timed out), the operation could be successful -- please check the transactions later.
However, we only covered the case of `fetch` actually getting a response that indicated a timeout, e.g. "status = 524". For our SDK case, the timeout scenario is an error that goes into the `catch` block. In the `catch` block, we can't differentiate whether it is a timeout because it only returns a generic "failed to fetch" message.
## New Approach
Since `fetch` does not support a timeout value, the usual solution is to wrap it with a `setTimeout`. This already exists in our code as `fetchWithTimeout` (yay).
By setting a timeout that is lower than the browser's default and also lower than the SDK operation (90s for most commands, 5m for `publish`), we would now have a way to detect a timeout and inform the user.
Firefox's 90s seems to be the lowest common denominator ... so 60s was chosen as the default (added some buffer).
For the case of 'publish', it is actually called in the backend, so wrap the xhr call with a timeout as well.

The code was caching the first result and returning that.
We would expand the cache for multiple files, that that also require checking if the file has changed, so just read the content every time -- I think the file is small enough?
Re-used lots of Anthony's code + made fixes to a few areas including the publish page.

Ticket: 1318
Had to create v2 as there is no backward-compatible location in the v1 json to place it.
v2 allows any future expansion beyond 'categories' and 'meme'.
One-meme-per-homepage is also supported, but not enabled for now.
The fn version was only needed for Search Page, and that was making it hard to move the metadata to the homepage repo.
Revert back to original, then handle Search separately.
Ticket: 1256
For `notify`, "file is currently locked" and "no such file or directory" is indication that the previous "failed" SDK call actually worked. Tell the user to check the transactions.
This is the band aid until odysee-api/401 is addressed.
There is anecdote that we need to wait up to 2 minutes to preven the locking scenario.

## Change
Instead of multiple retries at short intervals, do a one-time retry after a 2-minute wait. We'll do this until the fix is available in tusd v2.
Was trying to save 1 state by assuming the homepage will be in a busy state and the ad-detection code will finish first. But this is not true for those with a small Following count.
* Factor out lighthouse-result processing code for FYP re-use.
The FYP results will be in the same format as LH.
* Recsys: add ability to pass in specific uuid to use
For FYP, we want to pass the UUID as a param when searching for recommendations. The search comes before the recsys entry creation, so we need to generate the UUID first when searching, and then tell recsys to use that specific ID.
* Redux: fetch and store FYP
Note that the gid cannot be used as "hash" for the uri list -- it doesn't necessarily change when the list changes, so we can't use it to optimize redux. For now, just always update/render when re-fetched.
* UI for FYP
* Mark rendered FYPs
* Pass the FYP ID down the same way as Collection ID
Not ideal, but at least it's in the same pattern as existing code for now. The whole prop-drilling problem with the claim components will be fixed together later.
* Include 'gid' and 'uuid' in recommendation search
* Allow users to mark recommendations that they dislike

* Homepage-Following: insert instead of replace when ad-blocker is detected.
`window.odysee_ad_blocker_detected` was not meant to be used outside of `<Ads>`, since it wouldn't spark a GUI update. But since homepages are rendered several times, perhaps it doesn't matter and we can skip adding to redux for now.
* Handle uBlock origin
If refreshed via "Clear Cache and Hard Reload", the detection method fails, but it does perform an internal redirect, so treat that as a failure.
The solution didn't work 100%, only reduces the chances of happening significantly. So far, still can happen on hot-reload during development.

## Issue
Double ads on screen
## Reproduce
- Pre re-design:
- Change "Only Language" from tne locale nag.
- Post re-design:
- Follow a bunch of channels with active livestreams. The homepage ad will show 2 ads stack on each other, with second one invisible.
Both should be equivalent, just different UI/style.
## Analysis
In both cases, it is due to `removeIfExists` failing to remove the element if the ad script hasn't run yet.
This can happen when the component is re-mounted immediately after the ad script was added. When the effect-cleanup runs, the script have not started or is running halfway.
Aside: The need to run `removeIfExists` further strengthens my hunch that the script is meant to live throughout the lifetime of the app, with it populating the given div as we navigate. But just my guess.
## Approach
Clean up before adding the script as well. This covers any missed elements from the previous cleanup.
The drawback is that this approach assumes there will only be 1 ad per page, but that's pretty much the case with the existing `removeIfExists` approach.
