Hello! I have been using your application on the phone for quite a long while, and have little to no complaints! Thank you for your work.
I have 2 questions:
I use Freetube on my laptop. Are there any advantages for me to make the switch? (sorry for the comparison I mean no disrespect)
Would adding a blocklist feature be something feasible/possible? I have been struggling extremely hard with using Youtube and filtering AI content out, especially AI music. I’d love to have a feature where I can drop a list and be done with it, instead of having to do it manually. To be completely honest I’d pay/support your work for such a feature, that’s how desperate I have been .
No offense, Freetube is great & on desktop I don’t feel like we offer much over them currently aside from having a more modern UI & maybe being faster to fix video playback. In future I’ll be adding Materialious account support (optionally) to our desktop & mobile apps what will provide some benefits over Freetube like settings, subscription feeds & history/watch progress syncing across devices.
Depends on the TV. I believe our method of detecting it the TV is a Android TV doesn’t work on FireTVs and maybe some others, really you’ll be able to tell based off the UI from our previews.
What prevents me from switching fully to Freetube is I need to export all my playlists (including watch later) into it, and currently, it’s not possible to do that. Only the subscriptions is possible.
Has Markdown instructions for self-hosting RYD-Proxy, Invidious API Extended, and PeerJS, then referencing all of that in the Materialious Docker Compose file.
Invidious is optional, so if the Invidious instance referenced in the Docker Compose file becomes nonfunctional due to YouTube upstream changes, Materialious can fallback to local video.
Two of these are already mentioned in the Features header in the original post, but I am list-ordering them for privacy front-end public instance maintainers.
Yes, usually there is an instances.json file in the repository so that LibRedirect can fetch public instances from either GitHub or Codeberg, but currently there is a INSTANCES.md file with no significant content in the main branch:
