EDIT: I'm fascinated by the childishness of those who are complaining about the $10. Not only you don't have to pay it, and not only that it's open source, and not only the intentions are clear on why it's not a permissive license made to fight filling average Joe with malware like always being done with NewPipe and others on Play Store, but also you can pick your poison. Would you like google to win this dumb war on ad blockers? Or would you like to support non-perfect people making FOSS apps for your benefit? I really don't get you, guys. Pick your battles! Take the win and shut up for once!
I see there's a lot of negativity around GrayJay and their licensing and I don't disagree; but there's a battle going on here It's Google against the world. Having private paid entities working on this alongside the FOSS efforts is definitely not a bad thing. The fact that they're running source available means that other people can look at what they're doing even if they can't use their code directly.
They can use the code directly. The license allows "review, compilation and non-commercial distribution".
It doesn't explicitly allow modification, but they do define "code" as "the code and any part of it and any derivative of it", so clearly derivatives are expected.
You "can" use the code directly.
But if you don't you're not bound by their license and can foss your work.
Proprietary garbage
It is at least source available. I prefer they didn't use the license they're using but it's there right to do so.
For mobile it's between using revanced, Grayjay or brave. At the moment I'm willing to use any one of the three that works on a given day.
On Android there's also NewPipe and LibreTube
They are all welcome.
However, almost all these guys are using the same libraries under the hood. When Google breaks one you're probably going to break most of them leaving us all scrambling to find the next way.
This must be the worst recommendation I've seen here
Absolutely good suggestion. Please check this out. Louis Rossman has a really in depth video with more information about the app on his channel
...If you have Android and $10 to throw at the problem.
Use http://grayjay.app
