This is really interesting stuff, found it on Hacker News. It’s like WINE, but for Android <-> Linux: https://gitlab.com/android_translation_layer/android_translation_layer/
This is great. This gives me hope for Linux mobile 🙏🏽
really buggy on fedora kinoite
[Genuine] Okay, why when Freetube exists though?
FreeTube doesn’t always have 4k. I don’t remember which format, but a video has to be a certain format to show as 4k. Majority of videos that are shot in 4k show as only 1080p on FreeTube. I welcome new pipe to linux and will actually be using it
People who are used to NewPipe can use it
Also this is more of a testament to Android on Linux rather than NewPipe on Linux
Ah, okay. Thanks for explaining!
Wow this is awesome! Waydroid is insecure (outdated, rootful container), slow in development and only sandboxed on Fedora.
But that they take Newpipe… which is notoriously broken as Youtube tries to block everything…
Other apps are
- OSMAnd~
- OrganicMaps
- Grayjay
- Jerboa, Fedilab, Pixeldroid
- Amethyst, Voyage
Those are really unique on Android
I went from newpipe to tubular since it comes with sponsorblock, but iirc the backend is the same.
No VPN or anything, it works great.
Which version of Newpipe are you using? You’ll want to use their latest release repository rather than the ‘stable’ one, that seems to make it work.
I’m using NewPipe daily and it doesn’t seem broken at all?
You use a VPN?
I use a VPN with NewPipe, no problems. I’m using the NewPipe repo for the app
Wow
Didn’t work on my Arch (btw) and Fedora
Interesting concept, if it gets good enough I hope ubuntu touch adopts this because I’m not a big fan of waydroid.
