It’s more work than using an alternate front end in the browser… of which there are plenty of excellent options… all which are optimized for use on desktop. But you do you I guess.

Can you give me an example?

It took me 5 minutes and five clicks and I’ve been using it for a year on my phone and desktop.

I don’t consider something that simple and convenient work, so I’m curious what you mean by “less work”. Do you mean the front ends take 3 minutes to install instead of 5 minutes?

Obviously can’t be down time since you can’t have a less than zero downtime, but what do you mean by “less work”?

  Piped.video and Yewtu.be are both web frontends that require no installation.
  
  Freetube has installers for windows/mac/linux with no need for the overhead of android emulation.
  
  I haven’t tried this out but I wonder if any of the popular Android youtube clients would work with Windows Subsystems for Android on Win11. It’d be way harder to setup than Bluestacks but would require less overhead.

  You don’t have to install anything, just go to yewtu.be
