I try to use YT as little as possible these days. Used to stream a lot of indie music, not talking indie radio guitarists no I mean the REAL indie basement dwellers, but since YT took away play-all buttons I moved to SoundCloud. Just type in a song you know in the genre you want and let it autoplay.

youtube-dl won't even download them now.

Both newpipe and libretube stopped working for me. I'm now using grayjay

[โ€“] Psythik@lemmy.world 10 points 2 hours ago

YouTube ReVanced still works phenomenally.

[โ€“] ItsYourBoyHalo@lemmy.world 9 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

This is weird... Where did you get your APK? From F-Droid or their website? The F-Droid version is always one or two versions behind the main repo.

Try updating to the latest version via their website/GitHub.

I get it from fdroid. I might follow your advice and get it from github. I thought fdroid follows GitHub

Edit: maybe I will use accrescent instead of fdroid from now on

Classic actions of a horrible company doing horrible things.

"It's for the safety of the children"

I had this happen recently with Freetube and the, very strangely, age restricted new trailer for a Darktide update. Hope the big brains figure out a work around. Even invidious fallback wouldnโ€™t play it.

i don't understand why people don't just use revanced and ublock?

[โ€“] timestatic@feddit.org 11 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

I don't like having a google account that has google tracking any video I watch. Also... the recommendations are more addicting and with Tubular (NewPipe fork) and Freetube I just imported my subs and follow them a bit. Never had to deal with the shitty youtube website once. Also, ReVanced still uses the proprietary YouTube apk and I prefer free software on my phone

[โ€“] dai@lemmy.world 1 points 18 minutes ago

You're worried about Google watching what videos you watch, presumably while signed into your Google account on an android phone?

Unless you're running Graphene that level of abstraction isn't much in their way.

[โ€“] VitabytesDev@feddit.nl 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I like revanced but it is still the closed source YouTube client and I still don't know what it is doing. Plus you have to connect a Google account for some actions (like history).

Would you be willing to share what you're using? Either a response or a DM

[โ€“] Mandy@sh.itjust.works 41 points 8 hours ago (3 children)

My main problem is that freetube perfectly remembers video position, without fail.
YouTube always fails

[โ€“] baguettefish@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Iโ€™ve had the same problem, in my case it was that my adblocker was blocking the domains used to track video position, which are mildly tracking-ish in nature.

How does Revanced even work.

I mean, newpipe is just download install and it works.

Anyone have a tutorial?

(Also how would Revanced bypass age restricted if you need to sign in before youtube even sends the video over to you? Does Revanced use burner accounts like Aurora store?)

[โ€“] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I think revanced uses a modified patch of youtube spoofing premium. I'm able to sign in using my regular account.

[โ€“] IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I wouldn't use regular account for any ToS breaking activities. I mean you can get banned.

[โ€“] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Sign in using irregular accounts then??

[โ€“] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Maybe even reservist accounts!

I'm not giving google my documents to confirm my identity, I'll pass

[โ€“] Azzu@lemm.ee 4 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

I gave them my documents with everything except the age blocked out with a black bar. I then digitally altered the birthdate to not be my real one. It worked.
