@[email protected] If you're including Joplin, please don't forget @[email protected] . It's the only #FOSS software that's been able to replace #OneNote for me.

@[email protected] hum it's been several months since Libretube does not work as intended, particularly through Piped that Google mainly broke. Did you mention Newpipe and/or Tubular, open source as well ?@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected]

Thanks for the info about Libretube, I did try looking on their Github before posting and it seemed active so I assumed it was still working?

Has it been broken by Google?

And yeah, I can only list stuff on this account that has Fedi accounts unfortunately.

@[email protected] it previously relied mostly on Piped but Google broke it. It is still active : Libretube team posted a while ago a workaround in the issues section, but the downside is a privacy loss, so until now many people now see no point in using Libretube rather than Newpipe.
