I'll admit to being a little nervous to stand up something on my server that's explicitly named for looting/pillaging, just in case I'm the mark and not the operator.
EDIT: Why is the app having my browser try to load googleads and doubleclick.net ads? I assume the play.google.com and youtube.com integrations are for some additional content?
Haha, I found the name brilliant :D
The google crap is from a youtube iframe found in the frontpage that displays trailers in the background for the showcased movies. So far I haven’t found any other way to play YouTube videos inline unfortunately.
Maybe YouTubes enhanced privacy embed will work for that.

Maybe I'm dumb but what is the name from? Doesn't make sense to me
pronounced "reaver", basically means pillager/robber
it's an old english word for raider/plundering, used in Firefly with the spelling of Reaver
Oh cool, thanks. I was unaware of this spelling, knew the firefly version though
