From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm bored and want to practice my Rust skills. I am the creator of open-tv. If you have any idea for a linux desktop app, even if it seems quite complex, I will take it.

The world needs the ability to sync freetube and newpipe. It's the missing link for both Apps, to be usable from home, to out and about

I agree, but I think something is already in the works, I'll check and probably make something practical to sync the two. It's not really a new app that's needed but a feature integrated into freetube/newpipe

Here's a thread that sort of just... finishes nowhere.

I've been following it pretty closely, and haven't seen any progress as yet. There are many github conversations, but nothing seems to have ever come of it.

I assume the challenge would be having the two different storage formats be able to be interchanged?
