A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I was happily using Lite as well and them just announcing it's discontinuing in a month feels really unfair. I don't want the added functionality of youtube premium. I don't want to pay €15 a month for the same thing I had before for half the money. Now I have to find an alternative, and I think for me it will also be ad blockers and piracy. I'll miss casting youtube to my TV ad free though...
You can totally cast from revanced on your phone to smart tube on your tv. It's not as seamless because you have to set it up once and need to open smart tube open manually beforehand but it's easy enough.
