Which YouTube frontend App
submitted 3 months ago by uzi@lemmy.ca
What are people’s recommendation between LibreTube, NewPipe, and PipePipe?
I don’t subscribe or download videos through app, I primarily use on occassion to listen to random music videos while I’m out somewhere, I do not watch content on phone, only listen to something.
If you’re looking for an in-browser alternative I’d highly recommend you take a look at the LibRedirect extension for Firefox and Chromium. It’ll automatically redirect any youtube URL to your preferred alternative between Invidious, Piped, PokeTube, CloudTube, Tubo, FreeTube, or Yattee.
If you’re looking for an external app and like using a Linux terminal then ytfzf may be a good choice. I’ve briefly talked about it here. It will even allow you to search on Youtube (through invidious), Peertube, and Odysee if you so desire.
If looking for a phone app, I personally like NewPipe.
There’s also UntrackMe which does similar things on Android
I don’t use web browser on phone for content, although I use Free Browser for being pure open source withoit deoendancies, but I only use computer for websites.
I’m trying to figure out which app to you.
i use mainly freetube both on desktop and on android.
Since FreeTube is not available for Android, how do you use it on phone?
it’s available on fdroid and github github.com/MarmadileManteater/FreeTubeAndroid
you can also download the nightly dev apks if you have a github account from github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube/actions?query=wor…
Oh it’s availqble through Izzy, not native F-Droid, thank you.
What about innertune? It’s just YouTube music with no videos.
Piped unfortunately is not working.
Personally had the most success with Newpipe, but having tried pipepipe just now I’d probably go with that, seems like Tubular/Newpipe but better.
