Saw Louis Rossmans original video on the app and figured (and it may well have been) it would be buggy and awful at that point. Decided to gike it a try, the app has all the options I could want for watching youtube, it’s multiplatform to a much greater degree than Newpipe and it’s forks.

The reason I don’t ever expect to go back to Newpipe or Libretube is the plugins update through the app, meaning I can get bypasses to YouTubes bullshit as fast as they’re developed.

Newpipe is usually updated quickly, but in my experience forks like Tubular that include sponsorblocks often delay me from getting that update.

Overall, very good experience so far!

    People like you are the worst enemy of open source, and you really think that you’re a staunch ally. It’s really Fucking sad.

      Grayjay isn’t even “open source” according to the OSI. Do your own research instead of just believing what some Youtuber says. I respect what Louis is doing from a consumer protection perspective but he really should be more transparent about licensing
