Youtube alternative solution
(apollo.town)
Hello guys, I have noticed that all the big internet services are starting to get worse and worse. And I am forced to migrate to foss alternatives. I have moved from Windows to OpenSUSE, from Reddit to Lemmy, etc. But I have an issue with moving from youtube. It is not that my favourite channels are not bringing me alternative they do but it is somewhat fragmented. Some of them are on PeerTube, some on Floatplane, and some on Nebula and I would rather pay those than youtube. My issue is that each of these has its app and I would like to have them united in one app to which I link all my accounts to. Does something like this exist?

What about NewPipe? Its nice and it also works with peertube, soundcloud, bandcamp. Its neat to have all these in the same app

The main difference that has me using LibreTube rather than NewPipe is because my subscriptions are on my piped account so they are synced between phone and desktop (browser). Piped is built on top of NewPipe's extractor library anyway.
I've been a NewPipe user since forever but I tried LibreTube like a month ago and I have completely switched.
I don't consume Soundcloud or Bandcamp, and I'd like to consume PeerTube with an account, but NewPipe is fully local.
So that makes NewPipe only useful for YouTube (for me), and FreeTube has a few extra features that made me switch:
Sounds interesting. I'll try that out.

I just edited previous post because i confused the name of the app other pipebuzzname.
Its funny, i've been using it for years and i still confuse the name
Let me know your thoughts once you've tried it
