Neat idea. I’m going to watch how this develops but I don’t see it ever becoming much of a thing until there is iOS support. I’m not an iPhone user. Just realistic.
This is something I always wonder about—is there a good source for realistic market share of mobile os?
Wild, so understandably android is a much greater share, given the wide variety of phones it can run on… I’m guessing iOS is a favored app market because it’s more monolithic or stable? Or put another way the android share is fragmented all over the place?
Third party frontends of all kinds are forbidden on the Play and App store but we Android users have F-Droid and if the license is changed at some point (it’s supposed to be temporary as far as I understand) it will probably land there, till then Obtanium is probably your best bet I guess.
Yeah I’d rather not give all my details for multiple sites to one site…regardless of who’s doing it.
You took the words out of my mouth. I don’t even know who this guy is really, I’ve seen some of his videos, but having access to all of your account stuff is… nah
A 300MB apk file? It is on Google Play. No F(L)OSS license. Other apps by the same developer (futo) seem to contain no trackers. Probably nothing to worry about, but how many video platforms does the average person use? I look at YT and a small handful of peertube instances.

FUTO is an organisation that wholly sponsors developers to make source-available, privacy respecting apps. They do other stuff too, but mainly this.
Like Shark Tank or Dragons Den, but for developers
You are trying to download the universal app that contains multi archs libraries. Try to download a specific arch for your device like arm v7 or arm v8. That’s half the size. The Play Store build is even more optimized at 41mb.
Edit: the version listed on their website has more sources compared to playstore which is bland. I would get the site version if I were you.
dope app
Better revanced = NewPipe
No algorithms, no Google tracking
I personally find LibreTube even better, since it syncs with your Piped account.
i would use directly my phone’s video player if it was what i used youtube for.
