very hush hush, but there's this app called New Pipe, available through F-droid

NewPipe seems to be unmaintained now, use the fork Tubular instead.

Newpipe is in active development and just updated a few days ago, they just have a slow release schedule.

I use tubular and it's great, but Tubular itself is still subject to newpipe's release cycle.

Not sure why people started thinking newpipe is unmantained, this is the second time I hear it here on Lemmy

Because it has been unable to load comments and constantly shown errors for several months now.

Google copied the ability to download multiple apps at the same time from F-droid. They're scared.

Copied what? The ability to multidoulwnload? Like what's been in Chrome for... forever? Of Firefox.. Or Internet Explorer.....Or BitTorrent?

Don't get all high and mighty acting like F-droid invented the concept.

Play store is preinstalled on billions of devices, F-Droid is only used by a bunch of (very based) nerds.

Google is most definitely not scared of F-Droid
