  I found a neat little workaround that I used for a while. I’d load the video up in my browser, turn the phone on an off a couple times, press play on the lock screen, and enjoy it that way.

    I found a little workaround called Newpipe.

    @interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml gave me a really good suggestion the ither day. If youre on Firefox, it might work for you too :)

    addons.mozilla.org/…/video-background-play-fix/

    I just have the video running on Firefox and can them go to another App / turn off the screen

    Most certainly off-topic, but I have found other cool workarounds for apps.

    For instance, if you open 2 windows of, say, PowerPoint (1 you want to use, the other you must close after; read below). Then, go to the one you don’t want to use (or at least one you use for this method), and wait for the no account/Office not bought/whatever pop up; in any case, do NOT close the pop up. Open the other PowerPoint, and then close the former. If done right, you’ll be pleasantly surprised that it works perfectly! After that, you can open any additional ppt files. Do note that, after you close PowerPoint entirely, you gotta do this all over again.

  It used to just work. Then it only worked with a funny work around. Now I don’t care because I pirate their content instead.
