Edit:

MYD, also known as M3 (Material 3) stands for Material You Design introduced in Android 12

MYD? Have you just invented an acronym because a search reveals zero relevant answers as to what it could possibly mean.

Using acronyms, especially obscure ones only serves to exclude people.

I apologize for the misunderstanding. When OP asked for NewPipe alternatives, I assumed they were an Android user, where is Material design very popular.

MYD stands for "Material You Design". Somewhere you can also see M3 (Material 3).

This is the latest Material Design version introduced in Android 12.

Shaka. When the walls fell.

My guess is something android related since all of those links to android apps.

Absolutely agree with you about acronym usage in a common forum, it's aggravating.

Now I want to throw a bird and see it fly away.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

They made a game out of that. But the birds just ended up crashing into things, sadly.

Mind Your Dirigible, the dirigible in this case being your personal data. He's saying you should use a VPN or other precautions when using those apps.

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

I'm so tempted to now question what VPN stands for 😆. Although I suspect more people would recognise the acronym than the full name

Yep, it's basically a sorting software that makes sure your IP is always sorted under the "somewhere else" tag, so the government can't see where you are, or more accurately when you are.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

To anticipate the next questions, IP stands for Iambic Pentameter, which is obviously self-explanatory.

do any of those work well on smartTVs newpipe crashes after 1:10 so i switched to https://github.com/Jeeaaasus/youtube-dl and just grab my subscriptions and watch them in beloved kodi.

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

https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTubeNext is the only app you'll need on a TV. It's designed for it and fully syncs with your original youtube account.

Direct download: https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTubeNext/releases/download/latest/smarttube_beta.apk

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yup 100% for TV SmartTube is so far ahead of its alternatives

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I wish they supported NewPipe-style local subs.

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

Thank you. Had tried kodi plugin for YT and had a terrible experience. Pretty much stuck to using YT only on mobile or browser for so long thinking removing ads on TV wasn't possible. Now can enjoy some good videos without 3 unskippable ads nearly after every video.

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

tried it. maybe i dont know how, but in newpipe i can sub channels without a login. smartube cant do that,right? i do not have accounts with google,apple or crooks alike. how would i sub to channels then in smartube?

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

I can't tell, I have a youtube account.
