It seems to me that recently, Big Tech CEOs have been searching for interesting and creative ways to utterly destroy their company with no chance to rebuild it. Maybe he is trying to do that? At this point, it seems to me like Elon is doing his best diligence to set money on fire and run Twitter into the ground.
Yattee seems to be the best option, but it seems to be an app where your mileage may vary due to it being a beta.
If I remember right there’s an app named Yattee for iOS devices, but I don’t know how to install it. Maybe that could work?
That too! I just don’t use it myself because I find NewPipe works well enough for me. However, I should still try it out eventually to see if I’m missing anything big.
I’d always use a VPN, you never know what could happen in the future. Better be safe than sorry!
Don’t forget NewPipe for Android, Yattee for Apple devices, SmartTube for most Android TV boxes, Playlet for Roku, and Invidious for PC (if you don’t like Piped).
The only (usable) platform I can think of without a ad-free YouTube client is maybe webOS for LG TVs.
(some of these clients are also missing some features because they are new, but they should all be better for watching than the official app)
Rootkits still can exist for Linux, but because there are more Windows users and thus more to be gained from a Windows virus of any sort, it would be pretty hard to find a rootkit for Linux.
It seems apps like SpotiFlyer and Spotube both use the Spotify discovery API but actually get the music from YT Music (which is already easy to download using yt-dlp, NewPipe, or another app of your choice). Kinda sad that I can’t find a way to pirate music off of Spotify yet, but YT Music is pretty good for my purposes.
I would say for Linux to ust use uBO+FF and to not blindly copy terminal commands from the internet or to run random files with root. As many other comments have said there’s clamAV to scan for Windows viruses but since Linux is far less prone to viruses (due to Linux viruses being quite uncommon), I think you’re good without one.
There are still viruses for Linux to watch out for, but they are much rarer to come by, so I don’t have an antivirus on my Linux machine.
I love ViMusic, it’s helped me find a lot of music over thr time I’ve used it. Its reccomendations are quite good, and I can just donate to the artist if I like the music instead of trusting my streaming service to underpay them.
I do too, but I still listen to stuff on ViMusic because it makes reccomendations based on what you listen to, and I think they’re better than normal YouTube reccomendations. If I find a song I like, then I just download it and listen to it.
If a game I want to purchase has Denuvo, I just move on. It shows me that the game publisher doesn’t care as much about their users as they do their own profit. Plus, I also could just play another game that I already have.
Yes, but you are access have been reported, so they reported that you are access.
Because of their enshittification to chase pandemic profits, it’s just so much better to pirate now.
Yeah, that would be nice. However, NewPipe is currently being rewritten because the code became too bad to maintain, so we’ll just have to wait to add in new features.
A couple days ago I found a service called Farside, apparently you can replace youtube.com with farside.link/piped to redirect to a random smaller Piped instance. It works pretty well for me, although sometimes I just use il.ax because I’m just lazy and don’t want to type that much.
The two are quite similar services, there are only minor differences. Invidious uses its own API to scrape, while Piped uses the NewPipe extractor serverside. Piped also requires JavaScript to run, while Invidious does not. Overall, it’s just up to your choice. Generally I prefer Invidious, then open a vidro in Piped if it won’t load in Invidious just to see if it will.
Maybe he shoulda just stuck with the bird, or thought of a name that is even a tad more creative. I’m pretty sure a hamster or a piece of paper could do a better job at managing Twitter than Muskrat is right now.
