Thanks for the suggestion but I'm good with my current setup heh. I'll probably give it a try if NewPipe or SmartTube become crap for some reason ๐Ÿคท

Personally how the app looks isn't much of a priority unless it's so bad that it hurts usability and maybe 7/10 times I tried to play a video in Libretube it would either hang for at least a minute or fail to play at all.

That's just not an acceptable tradeoff for looking slightly better than NextPipe that's near-flawless on my phone and SmartTube that's near-flawless on my tv, neither of which is bad-looking IMO ๐Ÿคท

Here's the pic alone with less white line and 4 times as big since I wanted it myself and figured others would too

Completely agreed on the first point, but unfortunately the latter isn't always the case.

It's become almost the norm for both individuals and companies to achieve ridiculous levels of success through abusive cunning in spite of a near-total lack of expertise and effort compared to competitors and coworkers.

Yeah, probably ๐Ÿคท

I used Vanced and tried ReVanced after that. The app patches would fail even though I made sure that all settings and other conditions were exactly as the setup and troubleshooting guides recommended and eventually I just gave up trying.

With NewPipe and SmartTube, all of the things the OP and you mentioned just work out of the box and changing features and other settings is as easy as in for example Firefox..

Thanks for the update but still not that helpful for Connect users ๐Ÿคท

Got me all excited until this:

Lemmy Redirect currently supports the following clients:

That would be MUCH worse tbh..

That's absolutely spot on

I got into an argument in the main Technology community a couple weeks or so back and while I admit that it got too heated so that both of us broke the "be excellent to each other" rule, I still feel that an immediate 3-day ban with no warning or notification (I had to check the modlog to find out why I suddenly couldn't comment there) in a group where I'd never broken the rules before was ridiculous.

Didn't help any that the mod almost immediately unbanned the other guy who had been equally unexcellent during the exchange and initially got the same ban and left mine in place..

According to most lore, people become ghosts when they die having some major unfinished business. That's something that most people (and ghosts) would consider regrettable. Also, ghost are mostly depicted as not bound by gravity.

Meanwhile, bird has done or otherwise experienced regrettable things and is a bird.
