pelikan, w Youtube - like apps like piped.video, but as Android app?

You need ReVanced app, that’s new incarnation of Vanced app that ceased to work

Bandicoot_Academic,

Pretty sure that Revanced still has google tracking since its a patched version of the official app.

Also if anyone here intends to use it: Please be careful. The real revenced site (www.revanced.app) has awfull SEO and usualy appears way below fake websites (that sometimes spread malware). The only real websites are revanced.app and the github.

Also you have to patch the app yourself for copyright reasons so don’t trust and websites that offer a direct apk of revanced (the real website offers a manager app that you can use to patch the official app)

WindowsEnjoyer,

Revanced instructions (official Youtube app, but with adblocking, sponsorblock and other nice improvements).

  1. Uninstall Youtube (or disable if not possible)
  2. github.com/ReVanced/revanced-manager/releases
  3. Install
  4. Open, go to “Patcher”, find “Youtube” and download the specified recommended version from www.apkmirror.com
  5. Patch it, install it.
  6. Install MicroG if you want to use your Google account with it: github.com/TeamVanced/VancedMicroG/releases
  7. Launch your installed youtube app. You will need to login from within the app if you are using MicroG.

I thought I read someone was providing “clean” patched APKs now?

WindowsEnjoyer,

Google might go after pathed apks, but you can’t go after patches (which isn’t apk).

Devjavu, w Youtube - like apps like piped.video, but as Android app?

Libretube works off piped servers and has multiple instances listed ready for use. It includes Sponsorblock and has a beautiful UI. It’s slightly buggy sometimes but if you can deal with that it’s the best.

There's a couple. Libretube, newpipe, grayjay

z3r0_Geek, w Youtube - like apps like piped.video, but as Android app?

New Pipe unofficial fork with Sponsor Block if you want to skip ads

Ganbat, w Youtube - like apps like piped.video, but as Android app?

NewPipe, NewPipe + Sponsorblock, PipePipe and LibreTube are pretty much all of them.

nutbutter, w Youtube - like apps like piped.video, but as Android app?

I am amazed why no one has said Clipious.

It uses Invidious instances, and if you enable the proxy option, Google won’t even get to know your IP address, which is not the case with apps like LibreTube and NewPipe.

kzhe, w Youtube - like apps like piped.video, but as Android app?

Clipious for Invidious based, but it’s not as good as Libretube Newpipe for Piped, but it’s direct and reveals your IP to YT and has bad UI Libretube for Piped, but it’s a bit buggy at times.

maxprime, w Safe site to download older games?

You could always run it in a sandbox if you’re not sure.

Unpopular opinion: for executables, I purchase everything. It’s no longer worth it to me to risk a ransomeware attack. The game you’re looking for is $20 on steam which certainly isn’t free, but worth it imo.

I really have no interest in using steam.
There's a reason I asked in this specific community.

maxprime,

Fair enough! Not trying to guilt or pass judgement.

Have you used windows sandbox before? I’ve used it with success back when I used cracked executables.

Apollo2323,

Windows sandbox? What is that? Like a VM?

laylawashere44,

A VM that is cut off from the rest of the computer so that malware cannot pass to your computer.

maxprime,

Not exactly a VM but a desktop environment.

@DessertStorms@kbin.social avatar

I appreciate it.
And no, I've not used the sandbox before, I generally just scan the file for viruses and hope for the best (terrible practice, I know, but I so rarely download anything), but I would be happy to try it out, problem is all the versions I've downloaded so far have been in Russian (even when selecting English), so even if I do test them in the sandbox, I still don't know what any of the UI is saying lol

seaturtle,

An admirable sentiment.

The fact that a game is Steam-only is good enough reason to pirate it.

archive.org has a flourish of ROMsets for old machines!

I'll give it a look, thanks!

@DessertStorms

There’s even a a Python API to download files as you please, even more convenient than torrenting

They have a flourish of everything. Fastest torrents I’ve ever seen.

Not sure if this has what you’re looking for, but check out the r/Roms Megathread https://r-roms.github.io/

Doesn't look like it, but might come in handy if I find anything in the archives that gives me trouble, thanks!

Newpipe + Sponsorblock is a really good option.

Hazard,

This is what I use. Great once you’ve properly customized it.

CaptainHowdy, w Piracy Wiki + Megathread

Is there a tracker that gets most switch games? I used to use nsw2u, but lately most games area direct DL and not torrent. IPThads some of the games, but many of the ones I’m looking for are missing.

wolfshadowheart, w Safe site to download older games?
@wolfshadowheart@kbin.social avatar

Depending on the age, myabandonware and a guy named Vimm who has a lair are solid places.

Just one DL at a time from the latter, but it's worth it. Also it's not that bad of a hassle, go from small to large games and it's over in no time.

DessertStorms,
@DessertStorms@kbin.social avatar

Unfortunately myabandonware just links back to steam and Vimm only has the PS version, but thanks!

open_door, w Looking for obscure, older television

Responding very late to say it’s called MonsterQuest - sorry, I thought giving the name would violate the rules of this lemmy instance. (is that the right terminology?)
