Comment on YouTube's Latest Update Shows That Online Monoculture Is Dead

I followed the link of a video here on Lemmy just a few minutes ago and it opened in the browser.
Nothing shocking up to this point.
Then I get a prompt from the video saying “Ready to buy products advertised in the video? Log into the official app in order to.”
Direct purchase through the YT app is a novelty for me.
Newpipe all the way.

Newpipe 4 life!
Just need to find a way to stop Eternity from opening Youtube links in the browser. Sure you can share it with the app but it would be a lot more convenient.

Tried newpipe when I migrated from reddit. It worked 50% of thw time. Any better now?

Much better! It’s definitely much better than when I started using it. I remember it being so buggy at first.

is it just me or doesn’t NewPipe no longer populate the recommended tab under yt videos?

It varies, because YT periodically breaks it, but it gets patched up again usually quickly.

It tends to break whenever YT updates something, which happens kinda often. PipePipe tends to work as an alternative, but mine never shows the videos’ image preview for some reason

If you want all youtube links you click on on your phone to open in tubular you can go to your phones settings>apps>tubular>set as default and make open supported links on and under the supported web addresses you can select all the web addresses you want to be opened in tubular.
