I switched to duckduckgo a while back when I got tired of Google being a shitty search engine.
Google is unusable now. Google images is the worst.
Not being able to open image in new tab and download them anymore has made it functionally useless for me.
Yeah but you lose a ton of image resolution. The google preview isn’t even close to full size in most cases.
There is an extension for that, available on Firefox and Chrome. I couldn’t use image search without it, to be honest.
You suck, Getty Images.
That’s due to a lawsuit for copyrights… Google settled and made so users couldn’t download the image from the Google app, they need to visit the site
I thought Newpipe stopped working a long time ago. I could never get it to work. Time to give it another try. If it wasn’t for Google blocking the site, I would have forgotten about Newpipe :-D
Works fine, but I often have to go to the website to get the latest update. F-Droid takes a while to catch up.
Should be near instant if you add newpipe’s F-Droid repo instead of waiting for it to hit F-Droid’s main repo. Been a bit since the last release though.
Hey thanks for that! I’ve added the url and when I search for newpipe I get newpipe and legacy, but how do I know which repo fdroid is pulling these from? I don’t see anything in the interface that tells me it’s the right one. It says last updated 3 months ago for newpipe, does that sound right?
That could have been the prob before. Well I’m back on with all my subscriptions. YouTube is bearable!
Don’t forget that NewPipe × SponsorBlock is a fork that adds SponsorBlock. Also there’s ReVanced to make YouTube bearable while still having access to your curated feed.
I love how Google’s original intent of simply cataloging the net has now turned them into a net nanny whose job it is to prohibit vile copyright scofflaws from infesting others with their demented thinking.
