I'm using NewPipe daily and it doesn't seem broken at all?

it's worth noting that no actual security problems have been presented that haven't been dealt with, Sandboxing is available on any distro assuming the tools are made availible. Waydroid supports both apparmor and selinux, please report any security issues and tag the maintainers when doing so.

EDIT: you do need to set apparmor into enforce mode manually though.

I've been using FreeTube on desktop and it has worked great (with VPN)

I went from newpipe to tubular since it comes with sponsorblock, but iirc the backend is the same.

No VPN or anything, it works great.

Which version of Newpipe are you using? You'll want to use their latest release repository rather than the 'stable' one, that seems to make it work.

hey! don't be mean like that to my baby...

Newpipe works perfectly fine with only small issues sometimes. OrganicMaps is available on flathub

• KDE Advanced Something Editor (KASE)
• Gsomething
• Some random word. The worst ones I can think of are simultaneously Kleopatra and Seahorse. Guess what they do.
• "It's actually the name of an Indonesian fruit commonly eaten at celebrations..."

Yeah it's not open source unless the title is a garbage fire.

You forgot -XNG

It's still really basic, but has loads of potential, Unforunately it has a hard requirement on GTK, otherwise there are a few things that would have been nice for greater AX86 in general, for instance they have mediacodec->vaapi support, something ax86 has... struggled with in the past. but we can't use it since we can't use gtk.

People who are used to NewPipe can use it

Also this is more of a testament to Android on Linux rather than NewPipe on Linux

This is not about Newpipe itself but more that fact that this is an Android app ran on desktop Linux, without any containers like Waydroid does. This is like Wine, but for Android apps.

FreeTube doesn't always have 4k. I don't remember which format, but a video has to be a certain format to show as 4k. Majority of videos that are shot in 4k show as only 1080p on FreeTube. I welcome new pipe to linux and will actually be using it

I guess it's running a free ART implémentation? As Android runs on Linux there's at least no kernel translation layer to do

No, it's the same way as how mcpe-launcher works with android minecraft

Someone on HN earlier today mentioned they would fix the Arch issues

It translates the Android API to Linux desktop-compatible calls, just like Wine does for Windows apps.

feel you, brother

Well yes, it's still early days and very much WIP. But the fact it works at all is amazing and shows what can be done with more work.
