I tried it there but my browser works better is my first impression, I'm using thorium with Ublock, YouTube enhanced and some other addons.
Did honestly just give this a test but I kept getting videos just freezing up for no reason.
YouTube recently rolled out changes that break these third party apps causing a 503 error. Other apps have patched this issue.
Yeah I've removed it already and know all the antics YouTube has been doing as I use Smarttube on my Firetv.
But yeah not very impressed with Freetube in comparison to even a browser and the more I read about it not being able to view age restricted and other content it's not for me especially with the constant freezes.
