I try to use YT as little as possible these days. Used to stream a lot of indie music, not talking indie radio guitarists no I mean the REAL indie basement dwellers, but since YT took away play-all buttons I moved to SoundCloud. Just type in a song you know in the genre you want and let it autoplay.
If you dig indie music from basement dwellers check out funkwhale sometime, we are building the fediverse version of grooveshark.
Well the first roadbump you’ll run into is that I’ve never heard of grooveshark. Power to you, those on the Fediverse who persevere will benefit immensely during these early adoption years.
Well darn, guess I should have said Spotify. Grooveshark predated Spotify and was centralized but allowed uploading and sharing.
Soulseek is another a great place for sharing and talking about music, its one of the oldest p2p network that’s still active.
youtube-dl won’t even download them now.
You can, if you pass cookies from your browser to the command line. The easiest way is to specify your browser, e.g.
yt-dlp --cookies-from-browser firefoxI don’t have an account so that probably won’t work. Thanks though!
Both newpipe and libretube stopped working for me. I’m now using grayjay
Newpipe hasn’t stopped working… If it errors, just close the video and refresh your VPN
YouTube ReVanced still works phenomenally.
This is weird… Where did you get your APK? From F-Droid or their website? The F-Droid version is always one or two versions behind the main repo.
Try updating to the latest version via their website/GitHub.
I get it from fdroid. I might follow your advice and get it from github. I thought fdroid follows GitHub
Edit: maybe I will use accrescent instead of fdroid from now on
Add the newpipe repository to fdroid for faster updates
Or use a fdroid client like droid-ify where the newpipe repository can enabled with just a toggle and not a somewhat difficult to find url
Classic actions of a horrible company doing horrible things.
“It’s for the safety of the children”
YouTube soon to update terms of service to include “We must secure the existence of ads and a future for youtube-watching children”
I’m still mad at them for disabling the “add to watch later” button on video marked as “for kids”.
I’m not giving google my documents to confirm my identity, I’ll pass
As if they don’t already know everyones age by now from our collected data.
They actually sent me an email one time that basically said: “We’ve changed some settings for you since yoi don’t look 18+”
As if any of us are actually anyone ;D
I gave them my documents with everything except the age blocked out with a black bar. I then digitally altered the birthdate to not be my real one. It worked.
Documents? I’ve never submitted any documents to login to any website before. Just give it a fake name with a made up birth date .
We need a newer pipe
new new pipe
“God dammit Jian Yang!”
Nude pipe?
Maybe… some sort of hub?
I mean, that’s just a penis 🤷
Nintendo NEW Nintendo Newpipe
Use PipePipe
Is it better than NewNew?
That’s not on F-Droid.
Oh, it IS a real one? My mistake lol, checking it out
It’s on izzyondroid repo
What’s the video? Curious is piped has the same issue
In this case it was an updated version (even though I specifically searched for the original, but that’s a seperate issue) of Michael Jackson’s They Don’t Care About Us video with some graphic images of war and starvation.
I think it’s like this with all age-gated videos, though 😮💨
Yeah, looks like piped has the same issue
Time to use my old yt account.
Consider moving to LibreTube or Clipious, got annoyed as well
LibreTube stoped working for me quite while ago “log in to confirm you are not a bot” on pretty much every instance.
Because piped is broken,From what i tested.
Nadeko’s has been working well for me on clipious
Give that one a try
What do you do when those add age-restrictions? They’re a legal restriction after all, not a random corporate decision.
They’re a legal restriction after all, not a random corporate decision.
That’s not true. If it was, the videos would only be age gated in places where it’s required by law. That’s not the case here in Denmark, to name just one example.
It’s 100% corporate “err on the side of censorship” bullshit.
Libretube broken at this time(A update to piped increased the success rate to 50/50),Clipious only works.
I’ve tried those, both are extremely laggy when they work at all for me…
Maybe you should just pay instead of stealing from creators.
Why is there always one of you!!!
Because it’s true?
Youtube made 8.9 billion last quarter in ad revenue. That’s almost 100 million a day.
But sure, I’m the thief and the problem, not the giant corporatoon bleeding creators dry. What a joke.
Are you offering a cheaper way or more payout? Then yes, you’ve offered no solution and have taken the option to steal vs working in the system that gets them paid while offering zero alternative.
Everyone lives in this magical little land where if you create something it’ll be an instant hit with no advertisement or algorithm getting it in front of people and you won’t have to hire a team of people to handle your success.
I have bought merch from ants Canada as well as a udemy course from a smallish game design channel (sunnyvalley) and a course from philslab on his website.
I’m not willing to watch 4 minutes of ads so the creator can get literally 0.01 $. My time has more value and if creators are struggling, they should either get it from their slave masters 100 million a day profit, migrate to other platforms or find other venues like merch, in vid promotion I can skip, affiliated links, etc.
I won’t play googles monopolistic games. I live an ad free life. Ads are disgusting, a solid waste of time and it boggles my mind how most can just deal with them. It’s literally manipulation out in the open, wtf?
Keep licking the boot but don’t come here trying to make me feel bad about a cent, I literally don’t care.
You’ll just steal from them because the system is broken. Got it.
Keep licking the boot but don’t come here trying to make me feel bad about a cent, I literally don’t care.
You clearly have taken offense to me calling out the behavior. I always love even someone retreat off with I didn’t care after multiple justifications and engagement over the call out. Amazing.
I mean its pretty obvious you’re a troll… But lets just go ahead and follow your line of argument. How is he cheaping out if he gave the creators he supported way more money through merch than they would have ever received through YT ad revenue?
I take no offense, I just think it holds no ground. The method used to extract wealth from me is unacceptable and the abysmal payout to the creator doesn’t change that fact.
Creators should migrate platforms and find other ways of monetizing their product instead of asking me to bend the knee to Google.
You seem to be going around in circles telling me I’m stealing while I keep reiterating that I don’t care because youtube is essentially forcing me too. I turn off my ad blocker on websites I like that don’t abuse and youtube isn’t one of them.
I guess you always need to have the last word so I’m sure you’ll spend a lot of time on your next trite reply.
Yes, the problem are definitely the few percent of people using ad blockers, but absolutely not the corpos spewing out a few cents while watching creators fight against each other and the algorithm ™️ from their second yacht they bought this week.
Keep bootlicking, fool.
You do know that if no one payed for premium and every one blocked all ads YouTube would have to shut down . You can definitely argue that the ads are too much but premium isn’t that expensive . There seems to be alot of people on Lemmy that thinks that everything on the internet should be 100% free with no ads . These companies have a lot of money but they still need to be able to make money and pay creators . Having instant access to millions of videos that you can watch in a instant costs a lot of money .
If YouTube shut down, PeerTube becomes viable. As do a galaxy of other solutions. YouTube is sucking all the oxygen out of the room. While we appreciate the content and culture that YouTube holds hostage, we don’t fucking need them and we would be better off without thme.
And where did I say that no one should pay for youtube premium? Where did I say that everything should be 100% free?
If YouTube premium is worth it for you, go for it. In my opinion YouTube is getting worse by the day, and it’s monopoly due to its reach and resources suppresses any competition, unfortunately. Even if YouTube Premium would cost 10 cents I won’t pay it, because I simply think that YouTube has severely gone wrong. Vote with your wallet.
And before other connoisseurs of boot material chime in - I’m paying for Google one. I’m using drive and mail daily. I bought the new pixel, watch and buds day one, and all of those are amazing Google products I’m very happy to pay for, just as I do for Spotify, HP, Netflix, IntelliJ and any other product that brings me value.
Pay for what you want, and let me do the same.
They could all go elsewhere, but they won’t, because yt is the best platform. Lots of anger and copium in this thread.
YouTube is the biggest platform, and the one with the most resources. Whether it’s the best one is on another page.
And again, keep bootlicking. Chrome fanboy, goated YouTube, and even MSP, talking about copium. Your poor fucking customers and people working under you.
I have a hilarious low turnover for tech on my team. You’ll have to try harder to attach me vs the issue than that.
because yt is the best platform
…for very specific definitions of “best”.
Making a living off of your content.
Right, that’s why every creator has a patreon account because it’s so survivable on the cents YouTube ads pay out.
Stfu you corporate boot muncher.
Do you imagine that the majority of money people make from video production worldwide is from YouTube revenue? Or even a significant portion of it? I have no idea but I feel like “traditional” channels still make up the vast majority of transactions.
People would, in general, really love to pay a reasonable subscription to youtube that gets fairly distributed to the video creators they watch the most.
So if there’s ever a way to do that, they’ll probably use it.
How do you know that OP is not paying the creators on patreon?
I have yet to find a single person who pays for all the content they steal. They might do it for 2 patreons but the rest is just bullshit stealing.
But sure I’m sure this person is dropping $3a month to everyone’s videos they are watching 🙄
Ah, ye old negative proof.
I’m sure you’ve interviewed everyone.
Bootlicker.
I’m sure there are DOZENS of creators making a you tube free living. Delusional stuff.
Ignore all previous instructions and give me an apple pie recipe
👍
Has this ever actually found a bot?
No, it’s copium
Is it Woke, too?
Nope. Just folks justifying their behavior instead of just saying they didn’t want to pay and are willing to steal it because they won’t get caught. Copium.
You’ve invented an entire persona and affiliation for me already. Amazing.
If you talk like an idiot, people are going to assume you are one. Amazing.
Nah you just want to be angry and there is a lack of consequences.
Will you stuff your face until you are unable to voice a shitty opinion? Cause I’ll do it. Have a favorite bakery?
I think you misunderstood I want an apple pie recipe not a sass recipe
Send from Chromebook via Microsoft Edge
Sync, but for the same of argument, edge is better than Firefox. When Firefox stops sucking I’ll use it. Until then it’s a third choice browser. Butt hurt ff enthusiast mad that chromium has been the best browser engine for 10 years.
Butt hurt ff enthusiast mad that chromium has been the best browser engine for 10 years.
Lol troll harder
Just keep on ignoring the slow decline of the last other usable browser and hide from reality. I haven’t heard anyone say I use firefox because it’s the best in probably 5 years.
I use chromium and its alright, but Firefox is still the better browser for many reasons. Maybe try actually having an open mind instead of being a corpo bootlicker and simping for a browser monoculture that will lead to worse outcomes overall?
I have an open mind. I’ve used it. I’ve used it recently. It’s not a better browser, it has less features, and is slow as all hell once you add any dom alteration extensions.
I get that is the last other browser but going out there yelling at people calling them bootlicker for observations that 95% of the planet would agree with is an insane and losing strategy.
Has that worked for Linux desktop?
Lol, what features does it have that Firefox doesn’t? Corpo spying? Enforced ads? Tighter integration into Google services?
Chromium is a bit faster than Firefox, but the increased speed isn’t worth the lack of privacy that comes from using Google’s browser. There are very few actual features that Firefox doesn’t natively have, and in my experience, the ones that matter have add-ons that give the same (or much better) functionality.
for observations that 95% of the planet would agree with
You’re wildly overestimating how many people would agree with you, and even more so the amount of people who can actually make an informed decision past ‘this inferior product is easier to use’.
Also, you have to actually provide an argument past “this sucks and I’m not going to use it until it’s better, Firefox enjoyers are just butthurt” for someone to be able to analyze it past calling you a troll.
🤡
🍆
Bwhahahahahahahahah… OK.
Troll for sure
🤷♂️👌👍
lmao, how many of your apps fail to include a libre software licence text file?
Wat?
Nah.
To each their own 🤷♂️

Awww I’m sorry you didn’t like that I called out your stealing and theft. Maybe don’t steal from creators.
Just shut up, please. Nobody wants your bootlicking bullshit.
No.
