I use Tubular, and this fork crashes hard when I import my DB (regardless of if I import the settings as well or not). Guess I'll stay on Tubular since it just works (for now).
Tubular works great and has SponsorBlock build in.
I was searching for any native(non-proxied) YouTube client for Android in kotlin.
You can always turn off the proxying in LibreTube
Asking out of ignorance, is there anything wrong with NewPipe rn?
The codebase is in Java.
I'm sorry but that is really the dumbest argument that I've ever heard. How in the world does that affect the user when it's compiled anyways? If you want to modify the app then just do it in kotlin. They are interoperable
What's wrong with that?
A good portion of Android itself is written in Java, and is not expected to get ported to Kotlin any time soon
I'm curious, why is kotlin interesting here ?
Dunno, but another fork popped up, recently on F-Droid. And I like it. It's name is PipePipe.
PipePipe has been around for quite some time, at least 2 years I believe
What do you mean with non-proxied?
Not using the Piped or Invidious API to proxy the video stream, since these tend to get blocked by YouTube really quickly
@Andromxda @naeap it's odd but the mobile app versions of these proxies services seem to work longer vs the desktop versions... #freetube for example, android app now connects, but desktop says you can't view since you're not logged in.
Does not use projects like piped.
Ah, ok, thanks
Was thinking like, opposite of native. Aber that didn't really made sense for me.
the developer has one app on fdroid if that means anything to you
did you try pipepipe ? https://github.com/InfinityLoop1308/PipePipe
PipePipe is not written in kotlin.
And?
