Quick shout-out to Grayjay: An app to watch videos on any platform - reducing the power of individual services. The Software is open-source and can be found here: https://gitlab.futo.org/videostreaming/grayjay

I will test this out for myself and hope someone here finds this useful.

I tried to import my subscription from YouTube to the app but I got rate limited due to the large amount of channels. Is there a way around it?

You'll probably want to report that to the devs. It is in alpha so there is a lot to add, fix, and tweak.

I did report it just making sure I haven't miss anything. Pretty excited about the app

I find it strange that they immediately called it a "better ReVanced", when apart from the feed thing it doesn't have nearly as many features as ReVanced.

Has anyone come up with an actual reason to switch? Because I have a feeling ReVanced is still better?

I'm not seeing an APK. Or is it only to be build in android studio?

Sure, but it can also update itself.

If only it didn't require you to have a new phone to run it. (Minimum Android 10)

Can you import from a newpipe backup?

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

No, only from an existing YouTube account

Since they encourage ppl to write plugins, hopefully someone will write an import feature.
