Yea, it's crashy enough already but one of the last few updates was a fucking mess!

Very interesting, I doubt it's going to stay there long because this is literally the first third party frontend of all kinds I as privacy enthusiast have ever seen accepted and I really wonder how they did that!

It uses Piped servers to proxie the videos which hide your IP address but those servers are run by volunteers and aren't always perfect so it's more of a hit or miss but if one doesn't work I usually switch and doing that between kavin.rocks, libre.kavin.rocks and adminforge.de usually works very well for me, I just wish there was a proper way to store my subscriptions locally beside not using a Piped account at all!

That's something I am also very much interested in but I haven't looked it up or tried yet so no clue!

Third party frontends of all kinds are forbidden on the Play and App store but we Android users have F-Droid and if the license is changed at some point (it's supposed to be temporary as far as I understand) it will probably land there, till then Obtanium is probably your best bet I guess.

Almost no third party frontend supports iOS because of their absolutely shitty sideloading limitations and they still work great...

I will keep a eye on it but till the license changes I will stick with my tried and true Newpipe and Libretube apps. Both of those are "improved revanced" to me already but the idea of multiple sources is a cool one, not new but certainly cool and I haven't seen Nebula in other attempts but I just wish people could agree on a addon standard to implement services for various of those apps and media centers at once!

There is a difference between open source and source available...

That's the easiest task for a criminal!

Small creators have terrible rates for Spotify because they pocket most of the money themself, even many big creators struggle to make significant money with that peace of shit of a app and they have far better rates so I get the idea but you are very wrong!

Let's hope they can pull it off soon, XFCE really surprised me with the speed at which they transition but it's a huge project for any DE and we are slowly getting to a point where it's actually neccecary!

As a Gnome user I approve of this comment, some more colors would be awesome, especially if they are standartized through xdg!
