NewPipe is an open source YouTube client for Android. I personally prefer LibreTube but either one is a lot better than using the official YouTube app.

Better than revanced?

I'm using Newpipe but haven't tried LibreTube. Interested to try it out. How come you prefer it?

[–] Evkob@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 months ago

It routes your traffic through Piped instances rather than YouTube's servers. The main reason is probably just that I prefer LibreTube's UI.

I use NewPipe, it's a nice alternative but then I'm not a heavy YouTube user. How are they able to make it? I'm surprised YouTube would allow an app like this to exist.
