YouTube's war against third party apps is just as ridiculous as its war on adblockers (www.androidpolice.com)

Long time NewPipe user here, have you tried FreeTube?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (2 children)

No, I've never even heard of this. Is it better than NewPipe?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It is faster, doesn't crash and you can read the answers to all comments. It lacks some features of NewPipe like the display dimming via swipe, but has some UI advantages (sharing without timestamp, you pain in the ass!).

New version of newpipe can already do that tho, glad that these projects are giving each other inspiration to work on the features that user want, unlike certain company

The API feels faster for me than newpipe but its a PWA. pewpipe's UI is native to android, feels easier to use.
