I love free tube. But I can't quite figure it out. It works great on two of my computers. But on one of my computers is just dog slow. No matter which setting I fiddle with. So it's definitely alpha, if it works for you it's amazing.

    Only tried it on Windows 10 and I have a beast of a desktop machine (Ryzen 9 5950x, 128GB RAM and a Radeon X5600XT, built it for virtualization). Will try it on Linux later today and on my laptop.

    Surprisingly, it's my most powerful machine, that has the worst video playback. With constant pauses.

    I'm running free tube on Mac OS, Windows 11, Windows 10, Fedora inside of qubes.

    The settings are identical, I think it's something with the local API proxy. I just check it up to the alpha stage and inconsistent environments.
