It's an alpha release, so expect it to be buggy. Overall this is a good thing. We need more frontends.
Why can't they be a website than an app for Dekstop?
Also understood that they're not open-source but are they privacy-respecting?
Edit: Went through their privacy policy and seems they're privacy-focused. I will be trying their app now.
Personally I've been using FreeTube for accessing YouTube as they are FOSS. Only thing I wish they would have a feature to share like subs with Tubular and watch history somehow. It doesn't have all the platforms Grayjay has but for just YouTube its pretty great
Yeah if you know who's behind Futo (Louis Rossman) you will know he fights very hard for better privacy across the board among other things that are better for us consumers.
Edit: Futo being the company behind this app and other privacy respective apps.
when it comes to right to repair he's amazing. that being said, however, he hasn't had much positive to say about the SteamDeck which is leagues ahead of something like the Nintendo switch in terms of user freedoms and customizability.
Granted that's like one take I disagree with compared to ALL he's done but I'm still surprised he hasn't made a followup about how much good it's done for Linux in general considering he's been using Linux since it was in a physical box lol
the app is source available, it places some restrictions on modifications of the source code, but the code is fully available
I am working on an alternative
Spill the beans!
Cannot release yet because I need to "plugin out" the youtube part which was integrated directly into the flutter app in my earlier builds, will be open source
All good, look forward to seeing what you have made 😊

I really wish there was a truly open source version of GrayJay because GrayJay is actually Not OpenSource

Grayjay mobile is awesome, very much looking forward to checking this out. Love how it puts all my YouTube, Patreon, Twitch and Peertube content in one place.
