Or just Google doing their best filter bubble. I don't think they have any useable info on me any more, haven't used their search for ages.

Either way, I'll take your word for it and just thank my lucky star that I can continue to use Newpipe without problems.

Okay, I'll click your Google link —

It looks like there aren't many great matches for your search

— and certainly none mentioning Newpipe 🤷

It also has way more features, which might exain the extra resources. I'm sceptic but would love to proven wrong that Lemmy would fare any better with a bunch of FB-like features tacked on?

Calling in @jwr1@kbin.earth re possible domain block.

Cannot confirm, in my usage I have never encountered this. I use Newpipe almost daily and do not have a YT login.

Occasionally Google has done something (deliberately or coincidentally) to limit third party app access, but that's usually worked around very quickly.

Defo go for F-droid! Dunno if it's baked into Graphene but I use it almost exclusively on Android.

I also recommend Firefox/Fennec with the Web Archives add-on for viewing paywalled articles. You will be depending on others archiving the full version to read them, but with most larger outlets they will.

Context? Graphene related advice?

For Youtube w/o ads just use Newpipe, an open source, privacy aware, third party app. You'll never need to log into Youtube again. And it's not even piracy, even if Google might think differently 🙂

Interesting piece, didn't know about iOS stealth apps, and the ages of the accused certainly makes the news stand out —

— but can we talk about that hilariously bad "AI" generated picture they chose to illustrate it? That disembodied hand left of centre holding up the "iPhone"?

WHO WAS PHONE? 😄
