The UI is regular YouTube for TV but bundles plugins such as SposorBlock.
Started using this a couple weeks ago in my Google TV w/ Chromecast replacement (Using a Beelink mini-PC with Debian) and it's so much better than using the desktop site
It truly is so much better. I also grabbed a beelink, slapped fedora on that bad boy, and media consumption has never been so easy and actually enjoyable to do without all the normal BS from stream boxes or Apple TV. Completely disconnected my LG tv from my network as well.
Thanks for the tip, it reminds me of youtube app in nintendo switch
It reminds you of that because it's the same interface. It's literally just a different web view that checks the browser's user agent string.
