Watched Louis Rossman today, and he’s part of the team behind a new app for watching online video content - not just youtube, but nebula, peertube, twitch and more.

adblock already integrated, works amazingly with a quick test on my end - it’s an app in the Lemmy spirit

(it’s got a paid model similar to winrar, you don’t have to pay - but they do want you to - opensource and all)

    Smart pirates keep everything but the stolen stuff above board. Sonarr isn’t illegal, using Sonarr to download movies usually is. Same with yt-dlp. In this case, the piracy part that’s supposed to be above board is the code itself.

    I did test the app, it felt close to the youtube app but it wasn’t as good in my opinion. It’s probably an excellent client for the built-in services it lists that I’ve never heard of, but I only have access to Youtube and Patreon and Patreon doesn’t work.

    I do see a nice future for it in the piracy community nonetheless. It should be easy to add a Plex/Jellyfin plugin, maybe a Kemono plugin for Patreon, and probably a bunch of plugins for your average ad-infested streaming site.
