Wait newpipe has a sponsorblock fork? literally the only reason I use revanced

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yep, here's the github https://github.com/polymorphicshade/NewPipe

It's on izzyondroid too so I've been using the Neo Store in favor of F-droid to update it.

Yeah, I never got why they didn't include that.

Is there anything like newpipe but for yt music?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

newpipe does support youtube music

Ohh, it's a small toggle only visible when searching by text. Completely missed it so far, thanks.

ReVanced in all its forms are a blessing.

Never heard of this, does it work on desktop? NewPipe is my go to on my phone, but some content I need a large screen to watch

For Desktop, you can use FreeTube

  • Private viewing by default
  • Supports all platforms (Yey Linux)
  • No ads
  • Can create seperate profiles (Helps me with productivity)
  • Download the video is required

Only downside

  • Can't comment on the videos

Well thank you! I'll look into it. Great timing 👍

You can also look into invidious instances, if you want to avoid downloading an app.

EDIT: Or piped, https://piped.video/

You can't use ReVanced on desktop. I was mostly being sarcastic and saying everyone would just start watching on their phones. But I do most of my YouTube viewing on mobile anyway, so if I started getting hit with this, this is literally what I would do.
