• i hate to be that guy but i still cant see why not just use libretube at this point… newpipe has always been just a fair bit too far behind libretube in functionality for me to daily drive it. only reason i can think of is the removing from playlists bug, audio-only streaming bug, or piped inexplicably not working for you since ive heard some people are cursed like that lol. those are still pretty niche though. im honestly curious, what are some reasons you folks have picked one over the other?

      Libretube was always unstable with watching videos due to they using piped to show youtube content. Newpipe didn’t used piped. I always wanted something like Libretube with a backed of Newpipe

      • that’s reasonable i guess, though im only really interested in YouTube frontends for the privacy benefits which piped helps greatly with. why not use something like revanced, or why not turn off the piped proxy in libretube?

          Revanced just patched the exisiting YouTube app which is not FOSS. And i already turn off the proxy but it’s not working.

      Don’t have android. Invidious has been pretty nice though. It’s what I’m currently using.
