FluxTube | Flutter/Dart YouTube Client! | This could be the new Newpipe
A powerful and ad-free YouTube client built using Flutter. Watch YouTube videos without ads, subscribe to channels, retrieve video dislikes, read comments, save videos, and much more. - mu-fazil-vk...
I hope this project gets more contributors to help make it as good or better than Newpipe. Written in Dart using Flutter can allow it to be compiled for Android, iOS and desktop
What would make it better than NewPipe?
It can be cross platform. On mobile and desktop
Why do we need a new Newpipe? There is also LibreTube already which imo is already better than NewPipe as it for example has sponserblock built-in (which NewPipe refused to add).
Tubular is Newpipe with Sponsorblock built in.
Libretube is not working since end of July, no instance
Eh I self-host and that works just fine, I haven't noticed any breakage.
None of the are available for both mobile and desktop
What's wrong with Newpipe?
IMO:
The Frontend is the Problem. I borderline don't even want to use it anymore.
Also it'd be nice if it somehow synced with my laptop
Maybe if there was at least one project (other than Grayjay, bc that takes quite a bit of storage) that runs well on less powerful devices and ties to add support for all services community requests.
Just look at those cases when ppl requested them to add Odysee and removed. (I do get the removed part of thing, but saying Odysee is bad feels like an insult to people who don't want to put videos on Youtube. As if yt contained only good and properly reviewed content, right?). And there's more denied requests like that. Saying things like it's full of propaganda, conspiracies and idk what else they can come up with.
And other forks just support one or 2 additional services. Kinda reason why I like Grayjay plugin system. Because if you want support for something, you can, even without Android Studio. It already contains more, but it's quite large.
Not the new. No replacement . Not best . People learn there should be always options.
OK but why the awful A.I. art? At this point, just put nothing.
Agreed, I like flutter, but that AI image just turns me away from this project so much
...
Not exactly a replacement because it uses the Piped API instead of parsing everything locally like in Newpipe.
True. I did make a feature request to have the Newpipe Extractor in the app
Why would I use this over Vanced?
Also do you know of any YouTube client that allows me to group subscriptions? Having all my subscriptions in 1 giant feed is pretty useless since I'm usually looking for a specific type of video. I haven't found any client yet that allows subscription groups, which seems crazy.
Revanced and newpipe fill different roles while covering a lot of the same functionality. Revanced is still the YouTube app ... Just modified.
There's a lot of ppl that don't want the actual yt app for everything that it is. Also this being Lemmy there's a lot of users looking for open source alternatives for all apps.
Well, newpipe has channel groups for quite a while now.
Alright this inspired me to actually look into new pipe, which I hadn't used before. Turns out I'm an idiot because it has exactly this feature.
In Grayjay you can group your subscriptions. https://grayjay.app/
Cross platform
I believe GrayJay (Grey?) has a way to group subscriptions into categories
iOS !!! Yayyyy
how mqny youtubk ckients do we have now?
What's wrong with the old newpipe?
Imagine a ios yt client but they prob dont exist due to how apple is strict with the appstore
