New FreeTube fork with Save video playback speed setting for each channel separately (github.com)

The announcement reply in the (from original developers rejected) Feature Request issue: https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube/issues/4447#issuecomment-3697918113

And the repository: https://github.com/D3SOX/FreeTube

And for Arch users in the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/freetube-git-d3sox

There is a new fork of FreeTube that implements a (at least by me) long wished feature: Save video playback speed setting for each channel separately. He plans to do a Flatpak version maybe and its already in the AUR.

I personally have trust issues to run unknown forks and rely on them, for security and other reasons. So for now I won't use it unfortunately. But maybe someone else is interested.

Is there a fork that has Sponsorblock submissions available?

That's my biggest downside with FreeTube, the dev is anti-sponsorblock, he just added basic sponsorblock reading because it was too obvious everyone wanted it.

You could suggest it to the new fork. Maybe he implements it.

Ah, good old software devs: always one feature missing. It's why I still use MS Paint AND GIMP, Notepad AND Word, Firefox AND chromium etc
