What is Grayjay?

Grayjay is a cutting-edge app that serves as a video player and source aggregator. It allows you to stream and organize videos from various sources, providing a unified platform for your entertainment needs.

It's mostly used as a YouTube frontend^. However, it is now launching as a desktop app for Linux, Mac and Windows.

Yes, finally! I've been using the mobile app, and it has been nothing but amazing.

Is there a Flatpak?

Not yet. Had to manually download.

I am linux noob, they provided a .zip file for linux. Do I need to use the command line to install it?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You just unzip it and run it

Thanks. I'm running PopOS Cosmic Alpha and it doesn't like the executable, and since its in alpha there's features missing in this DE that would allow me (linux noob) to easily install it. I'll try installing Grayjay again when my OS / DE is in beta or something.

Pro tip from one Linux noob to another, chatgpt allowed me to take the leap from not understanding Linux well enough to make it work on my own to making it work and doing a few advanced things.

Chatgpt has pretty decent usefulness even without buying the subscription nowdays if you don't want to do that, so glad I did this!

Mobile app has been the best YouTube app replacement I've found. And I just got the pop up about the desktop app on my drive home from work. Will for sure check it out.

I wish it more closely mirrored YouTube's native video suggestions, but it's pretty damn close.

Epic!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

Hopefully there's light mode

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Does it have tabs? if not I can't see myself caring.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

It doesn't look like it does. It has multiple stackable windows, though.
