#GrayJay

@jkirk absolut. @cahimelsiek was ich gerne nutze sind Clients wie #NewPipe oder #GrayJay, da lässt sich ein Feed nicht nur aus YouTube Videos zusammenstellen, sondern auch mit #PeerTube Kanälen und anderen ergänzen, leider noch nicht mit der #ÖRR Mediathek. @bastian_S

Please feel free to comment/boost if you think it will help anyone.

On de-Googling my life. (I joined when I needed an invitation, so there is a lot to #deGoogle).

YouTube substitute: Grayjay, although YT seems to try to cause it problems. I use a spare Google phone for channels I watch a lot but don't support directly. I guess YT don't pay for views without the YT app...

@colpam io alla fine sto usando #Grayjay su Android e mi trovo benone, ma quelle volte che torno su PC senza #uBlock aiuto un incubo

Per non parlare quando vado dai miei che hanno la TV con YouTube installato e guardare un video insieme è più un fastidio che altro

Cioè la qualità è diventata davvero pessima.

Looks like #youtube is kinda having a meltdown again.

Video's are not buffering properly on #grayjay

On the plus side for #Grayjay, the download button offers video + audio together. #Freetube usually only offers either/or, except occasionally a 360p with both. That's why I use YTDownloader for that.

Testing a YT download in Grayjay now. Speed not amazing (230-350kbps).

Quick try before #WestWed tonight

For watch parties, I do them on my laptop, with video on left & Mastodon on right

With #Freetube, I can adjust window size for that. Even better, I can use pop-out (a.k.a. picture-in-picutre) to have just the video on the left & minimize the rest of the app

With #Grayjay, I can't find how to pop-out the video, so whole app visible. & it won't even let me resize enough to fit to the left of the Mastodon window

Screenshot of my laptop for a watch party.

Left: Freetube pop-out window showing just the video, none of the app. Adjusted perfectly to fit available space.

Right: Browser window with Mastodon.Screenshot of my laptop for a watch party.

Left: Grayjay window showing whole app. Can't adjust to fit available space, right side of its window just overlaps my web browser.

@marcorudy oh, for YouTube I don't know. I'm probably the only person on the planet who doesn't use YT unless I have to at work. I was premium sub and used it a lot before Google started showing up smiling at the inauguration and donating $$$ to support dismantling democracy.

But aren't there a bunch of apps that allows you to watch w/o ads? Like and is the other one called freetube?

And if you previously used and are FF forks.

I am really liking by @futo. It is the best Open Source Android-frontend for that I have tried so far, and it even supports several additional sources like TED, Patreon and even YouTube.

I am trying to take the plunge to only use Peertube and Odysee (and not YouTube or other centralized platforms), and this makes it easier! I feel that Grayjay has lots of potential, and I am looking forward to seeing future improvements.

Apparently there's an alternative media.ccc.de plugin and the author made an opening post for it at Lemmy

Apparently there's an alternative media.ccc.de plugin and... #grayjay

#Adblocker detection on #YouTube is working far too well rn so I've been using #Grayjay from #Futo and it's excellent. It can cast ad-free to any other device with #Fcast and Futo make a bunch of other awesome apps too. Grab that shit before they make it ilegal. grayjay.app/

I recommend #GrayJay, I recommend #ReVanced. Do not sit through paid promotions. You are not some idiot to be talked down to and molded into a consumerist mindset. Saw literal comments like 'I want this car now!' Like are you guys fucking dumb that is the point AND the problem

istg #Grayjay gets buggier with every single update

this time my home feed is only showing news channels I've never watched before instead of my youtube recommendations and now some videos in my subscription feed are appearing twice

i'm obligated to mention that the headlining feature of Grayjay, namely to follow creators across platforms, has never worked for me, even for the singular creator whom I've seen enable the feature, namely, the one who created the fucking app

i'd already been slowly switching to Tubular (a #NewPipe fork with #SponsorBlock) even before this since Grayjay noticeably drops frames at higher playback speeds and Tubular doesn't (i suspect grayjay not supporting hardware acceleration is the culprit) but i genuinely might uninstall grayjay after this. i'm disappointed. i wanted to like this project.

@yellowhearth1 Дякую. Мені подобається їхнє ставлення до користувачів. В них оцінка навіть 5 з 5 при з майже 2000 коментарів.

І #grayjay є в Плей маркеті.

At this point, I use #grayjay as my main Youtube front end on both mobile and desktop. And within the Youtube plugin settings I enable SponsorBlock, because I don't have time for that shit. And TIL about the settings sync option, so both desktop and mobile have all the same junk. It works really well. It is the little things.
