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!
Grayjay + Newpipe. Grayjay wont play YouTube Live Streams, but can send yt links to Newpipe, which plays it fine.
I respectfully disagree, grayjay is great, but in my experience it has been buggy, crashes occasionally, and does not provide an acceptable layout for foldables.
Revanced has been flawless.
I will keep greyjay installed for the inevitable day that revanced dies… but until then grayjay is not the best option for me personally.
Even I tried it at release, it wasn’t usable when you had a lot of subscriptions. Gave up after a couple weeks of trying it
Did they manage to fix this?
Options are good.
Hopefully being a paid app developed full-time by FUTO allows it to be worked on for a long time to come.
