If you want a good front end alternative to youtube, try freetube on pcs and newpipe on android
FreeTube is on Android too.
...no it's not?
Edit: yes it is
Yes it is: https://github.com/MarmadileManteater/FreeTubeAndroid
Works well, and you can sync history, playlists etc with SyncThing.
Damn bro, I'm going to have to start using it then
is, but it's just a webview

What do you mean by "just a webview"? As far as I know, FreeTube does not exist as a web client that can then just be displayed in an in-app browser.
as far as I see freetube is just written in html, css and Javascript, then all of that thrown into an Electron app. you can run these elements without Electron in any browser, it just won't have access to as many device features as the app does.
I've built a web version here from the source just to try it out. it's somewhat buggy but it does work
Ah, thanks for the info - I wasn't aware of that.
