When people post YouTube links, is there a cool open source way to watch it on mobile without going through youtube, firefox, or downloading adblockers?
When people post YouTube links.. is there a cool open source way to watch it on mobile without going through youtube? Because when I click on a YouTube link and I'm on my phone and it immediately gives me an ad it's pissing me off like in a huge way.. is there a way to bypass ads without an ad blocker on my phone

Ooh cute idea I'm going to try that.. Wait tho, you said an app.... is new pipe good for YouTube? Do you have a better recommendation?
https://grayjay.app/ if you're on android
edit: Firefox on Android also allows add-ons, so you can install ublock origin in the firefox android app and probably watch ad free that way as well.
You know what's super creepy? A robot just responded to a post I made on a YouTube link and recommended piped as an open source alternative haha that shit was freaky as fuck lemmy is cool
Iirc, some researcher or home user found out that iOS and Android are definitely spying on us. Probably windows too.
I'm not that interesting lol
That's what you think.

Grayjay is not open-source, though, by the way. It's source-available, i.e. you're allowed to look at the source code, but you're not allowed to do anything with it.
Oh yeah there's lots. I feel like a lot of people use ReVanced but I've never tried it. I use NewPipe because it allows me to locally export my subscriptions and use the open source frontend Invidious on desktop.
A bit of a personal preference. I imagine one of the piracy megathreads would have a list of community favorites. FMHY or the one on dbz0 would be worth looking at.
