A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Alternate headline: Users test using only YouTube ReVanced to bypass this new system

Newpipe x Sponsorblock fork is my go to.

[–] Sentinian@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wait newpipe has a sponsorblock fork? literally the only reason I use revanced

[–] GhostMagician@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, here's the github https://github.com/polymorphicshade/NewPipe

It's on izzyondroid too so I've been using the Neo Store in favor of F-droid to update it.

[–] delmain@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

You can add the IzzyOnDroid sources to F-Droid though? I get NewPipe w/ Sponsorblock updates through F-Droid super easy.

[–] communist@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I never got why they didn't include that.

Is there anything like newpipe but for yt music? Ideally on fdroid, revanced is... confusing... to maintain.

[–] communist@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

newpipe does support youtube music

[–] Kaldo@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Ohh, it's a small toggle only visible when searching by text. Completely missed it so far, thanks.

ReVanced in all its forms are a blessing.

Never heard of this, does it work on desktop? NewPipe is my go to on my phone, but some content I need a large screen to watch

[–] xavier666@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

For Desktop, you can use FreeTube

  • Private viewing by default
  • Supports all platforms (Yey Linux)
  • No ads
  • Can create seperate profiles (Helps me with productivity)
  • Download the video is required

Only downside

  • Can't comment on the videos

Well thank you! I'll look into it. Great timing 👍

You can also look into invidious instances, if you want to avoid downloading an app.

EDIT: Or piped, https://piped.video/

You can't use ReVanced on desktop. I was mostly being sarcastic and saying everyone would just start watching on their phones. But I do most of my YouTube viewing on mobile anyway, so if I started getting hit with this, this is literally what I would do.
