And I’m sure it’s annoying you too. You can’t view a single YouTube video anymore anywhere one is posted, without that stupid notification popping up. Which forces you to have to go to the shitty YouTube site, log in, hope through whatever verification checks that there is and finally, you can watch the video.

Isn’t there a way anymore where people can just link videos and for them to play? Fuck you, Google.

    You can totally just install the latest release straight from the git repository. However, how often will you remember to check if there is a new release? If you want your apps to stay up-to-date you have 2 options. (Ordered from least effort to most effort)

    1. F-Droid (minimal setup, slower releases)
    • Install F-Droid or one of the many 3rd party clients (I like Droid-ify the most right now)
    • enable the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid Repoin the Repository settings of the F-Droid client
    • install FreeTube Android
    1. Obtainium (moderate setup, quickest releases)
    • Install the latest release of Obtainium directly from the git repo
    • go to app configurations search for Obtainium and click on the add to Obtainium button so that Obtainium can update itself when there is a new release.
    • In Obtainium, click on Add App. Then insert the release page URL for FreeTube Android (https://github.com/MarmadileManteater/FreeTubeAndroid/releases) as the value for App Source URL, then click the Add button next to it and you are set.
