Quick shout-out to Grayjay: An app to watch videos on any platform - reducing the power of individual services. The Software is open-source and can be found here: https://gitlab.futo.org/videostreaming/grayjay

I will test this out for myself and hope someone here finds this useful.

If only all modern software was like this, as they used to be over a decade ago ☹️

Isn't that kind of the nature of open source though? Waiting until something is "finished" before making it open source would cut off a lot of innovation and contribution possibilities. Some software would never be seen because the original author didn't get to "finish" it and nobody else could pick it up.

Unfinished open source software releases are a good thing.
