Freetube is the best way to watch YouTube - eviltoast

I’m using this all the time myself. There is no login to YouTube required and it supports adding subscriptions and doing everything important you can do on YouTube.

And the best part is no ads whatsoever.

    Since they are integrating a web browser in the app, it kind of make sense here actually. For code editors though, not great…

      are they, though? I thought they just grab whatever data Invidious API fetches and display it with their method of choice, similar to how mobile clients for Invidious and Piped work. PlasmaTube manages to do similar thing without becoming a single purpose web browser.

      You can do this in a better way by using something like Photino or Tauri that uses the OS’ native browser engine. There’s no need to bundle a browser with every app (like Electron does).
