You are probably thinking of freetube
Freetube is great, it's the only way I watch YouTube now.
This looks promising! Might need to install it!
Thanks a lot! Maybe one of these is what I might have heard of. There's no way to speed the access right? I live in Asia, there's sometimes waits of 15s to get the video to start, and I have 1000Mbps symmetric fiber (Tested with invidious and piped...I think the one I might have heard mentioning might have been piped!)
There are plasmatube and audiotube in the KDE suite
FreeTube is great for downloading YouTube content to Jellyfin so my daughter can watch it without ads.
The new frontend is called LightTube. There is a link to one of the instance: https://tube.kuylar.dev/. It's that frontend that was mention the other day :)
I generally use mpv+yt-dlp from the CLI (once I have a URL). Often I use youtube-tldr (google it) to get a summary of a page - maybe you have noticed /s that youtube videos often take 10-15 minutess to get across one simple point!!
@ibroughtashrubbery heard nothing of that sort. There are in-browser frontends like Piped and Invidious with it's numerous instances e.g. yewtu.be. I'm also seeing few Qt-based ytdl frontends in AUR, might be what you are looking for?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
