  Not free software? No, thanks.

  I’m very happy with Newpipe, which respects their users’ freedom.

    LibreTube is another great FLOSS option. Just like Piped.

  Number of people have contacted Louis Rossmann that he should stop calling this app open source because it simply fails the definition of open source and his response has been very lacking. Clearly he doesn’t understand what open source is and now he is knowingly misrepresenting this app as open source. He seems to want the legitimacy and credibility that comes with open source but not want to let go of the control that needs to happen for open source to function. This is very disappointing and I’d stay far away from this product.

  can we stop advertising this app already? it’s not open source. people needs to stop licking Rossmann’s ass.

  right to repair is great, we can all agree in that. but when it comes to software, the guy can’t stand the idea of people using their source as they please and he wrote a source available license and keeps calling it open source. as other comments have pointed out, it is not.

  Notable FAQs

  Grayjay is currently Android exclusive. A desktop version is planned.

  God,… dammit.…

      People do frequently consume videos on devices other than their phone, though. A desktop application is arguably just as important.

  I feel like a search plugin needs to be added to PeerTube to allow search and use of YouTube, with the added benefit of downloading the video (in the background) and adding it to PT.

  That’s interesting. If it just supports sponsor block like Vanced does, it would be awesome.

    Use LibreTube or NewPipe x SponsorBlock.

    • AnokLola@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      I have already a sponsor block with Youtube Vanced, but I need it specifically for this app.

  • Scolding7300@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Anyone can publish there

    • nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      if that were so then perhaps Newpipe and Revanced should be published there as well?

  I like the idea of having an app where I can have video services in one place. Having some issues with GrayJay, but it says “Under Construction” so I guess that’s to be expected. Is anyone else planning similar apps? I know there are ones specifically for YouTube but this is the first I’m aware of that is trying to include more.
