I hope this project gets more contributors to help make it as good or better than Newpipe. Written in Dart using Flutter can allow it to be compiled for Android, iOS and desktop

What's wrong with Newpipe?

[–] Neon@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

IMO:

The Frontend is the Problem. I borderline don't even want to use it anymore.

Also it'd be nice if it somehow synced with my laptop

Maybe if there was at least one project (other than Grayjay, bc that takes quite a bit of storage) that runs well on less powerful devices and ties to add support for all services community requests.

Just look at those cases when ppl requested them to add Odysee and removed. (I do get the removed part of thing, but saying Odysee is bad feels like an insult to people who don't want to put videos on Youtube. As if yt contained only good and properly reviewed content, right?). And there's more denied requests like that. Saying things like it's full of propaganda, conspiracies and idk what else they can come up with.

And other forks just support one or 2 additional services. Kinda reason why I like Grayjay plugin system. Because if you want support for something, you can, even without Android Studio. It already contains more, but it's quite large.

Hm, didn't know about that. By the way, what is the word that is showing up as removed?
