Sorry for the terrible photo, I can only upload 1 so I had to mash all these screenshots together somehow.

If you're not familiar with GrayJay, it's a cross-platform video app. You can watch and search videos from YouTube (YMMV if you use a VPN), Odyssey, Bitchute, Nebula, Kick, Twitch, pretty much anything you can imagine, and aggregates all your subscriptions and searches into 1 cross-platform feed. And if it's not on there you can create your own plugin. There's a repository here.

PeerTube has been supported since day 1 but previously you could only view videos from the instance you added, so you had to add them all individually. It was updated recently and seems to not be tied to any instances at all. You can view comments but it doesn't seem to support login right now so you won't be able to "like" or leave comments. I've asked them to add this functionality.

For PeerTube you'll probably have to go into the sources and enable it. You'll probably also want to enable SepiaSearch at the bottom (this searches across instances, for those who have opted into search).

I don't really know how to explain the monetization model. There's a $10 lifetime license fee. They're adamant that it's not free (as in beer) but if you don't pay for the license, nothing happens 🤷‍♂️ I paid for it because it's awesome.

You can download from F-Droid (using FUTO repository) or direct from grayjay.app (the app updates itself).

There's also a desktop version, and your license works for both. Although the desktop version is really nice, it's not yet as polished as the mobile one. It also supports syncing your data over your local network.

Source code here

Enjoy!
