Saw Louis Rossmans original video on the app and figured (and it may well have been) it would be buggy and awful at that point. Decided to gike it a try, the app has all the options I could want for watching youtube, it’s multiplatform to a much greater degree than Newpipe and it’s forks.
The reason I don’t ever expect to go back to Newpipe or Libretube is the plugins update through the app, meaning I can get bypasses to YouTubes bullshit as fast as they’re developed.
Newpipe is usually updated quickly, but in my experience forks like Tubular that include sponsorblocks often delay me from getting that update.
Overall, very good experience so far!
When grayjay first came out I was heavily downvoted for saying this, and I’m probably going to be downvoted again, but although grayjay does look pretty good, I’m never going to actually use the app because it doesn’t have light mode, which I use because it is easier on my eyes. It is weird that for such a longstanding app, they couldn’t just add some other styles, but oh well.
As a dev, I can assure you that all those small details arn’t as easy to implement as you might think. That one would probably require 1 or 2 hours of work
Never noticed, but that is actually insane. I would prefer it to match my phone’s current theme, surely they’ll add that eventually.
