minus-squareAndromxda 🇺🇦🇵🇸🇹🇼@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·5 months agoGod damn, just use LibreTube. It has a sleep timer, as well as many other advantages: No ads, no tracking, it uses the Piped API so you don’t have to connect to Google servers, and it’s fully open source and available on F-Droid: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.github.libretube/ They’re also on Mastodon and they even have a Lemmy community: !libretube@feddit.rocks
minus-squareTheChargedCreeper864@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·5 months agoI wanted to use it back in the day, but most instances didn’t load. Even less often then regular Piped for me. I’d imagine that this wouldn’t be particularly improved now that YouTube’s doing their whole “Sign in to confirm you’re not a bot” spiel
minus-squareAndromxda 🇺🇦🇵🇸🇹🇼@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·5 months agoIt works pretty well for me. I don’t have any problems on piped.video, piped.adminforge.de and piped.ngn.tf You can also just disable the Piped proxy in the settings, effectively making it function like NewPipe
minus-squareTheChargedCreeper864@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·5 months agoI’ll be sure to check out those instances then!
minus-squareJackbyDev@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-25 months agoIt just tells me to sign in to confirm I’m not a bot Edit: changing instances fixed this
minus-squareAndromxda 🇺🇦🇵🇸🇹🇼@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoYou can also disable the Piped proxy at Settings -> Instance -> Disable Piped proxy
minus-squareJackbyDev@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoOh, does it still skip ads and stuff?
minus-squareAndromxda 🇺🇦🇵🇸🇹🇼@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoYeah, as far as I’m aware, it just runs a copy of the NewPipeExtractor locally, that’s the same stuff that’s used in the Piped backend.
