They still have no app. Viewing anything on that site through your mobile browser sucks ass.

NewPipe for android

[-] ButtCheekOnAStick@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

Tried that, the interface wasn't any better. Also, you couldn't log into an account and get recommendations. I use Revanced extended.

Libretube

Just tried it. Tried playing several videos, and the app just crashed every time. Plus, again, there is no youtube account sign in and a bad UI.

Not being identifiable is kinda the point of Piped, so an official YT login will never be a thing, I'd assume

[-] kick_out_the_jams@kbin.social 2 points 11 months ago

Piped is based on NewPipe's extractor.
If you want an app it's available on f-droid or with sponsor block on Izzy's repo.

Grayjay

[-] long_chicken_boat@sh.itjust.works 8 points 11 months ago

no.

Grayjay is proprietary. Use Newpipe, which is what Piped's extractor is based on.

[-] warmaster@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Wait, it is? Thanks for the heads up !

[-] DemBoSain@midwest.social -1 points 11 months ago

Grayjay is open source.

[-] Supermariofan67@programming.dev 7 points 11 months ago

Nope, the source code is available but it is proprietary software because the license forbids distributing modified versions, among other things

[-] warmaster@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Shit, why source available then ? What are they trying to accomplish ?
