Grayjay on Android has been working damn near flawlessly for me. No clue if the parent company is to be trusted at this point or not- but I cannot argue with the results.

I much prefer Newpipe, which has been amazing so far.

Were you able to import your subscriptions? I haven't been able to and that's all that's keeping me on Premium

[–] Drathro@dormi.zone 1 points 3 days ago

Yeah, logging in pulled across everything, as far as I can tell. Subscriptions included!

I'd never heard of FUTO. It's been around for a year and I can find so little information.

I know Louis Rossman is involved. I don't agree with some of his views, but as far as tech freedom goes he seems to have the right idea.

Good, I hope they raise pricing too and pay creators even less. Make it hurt. It's the only language users understand apparently.

A/b testing or code error?

Grayjay be like

Or sometimes it doesn't let me play YouTube in a minimized floating way. Seems to be if I've been going back and forth between horizontal and vertical vids. Both normally allow floating minimized play but something about how they interact often leads me to having to force close the app, which loses me the custom queue I've been constructing. If the official solution is buggy...

I just can't take an article complaining about ads seriously when it's that peppered with ads …
