They aren't the same, you'll see many communities with the same name in different instances. I'm still a newbie here, but what I do is to follow only the most popular one.
Remember that most instances are federated and some users or mods from any of the communities in different instances will make reposts from that communities on other instances, so there's a possibility you'll see a lot of duplicated posts.
I haven't tried it, but it's cool there are more alternatives.
I tried it and I still prefer Newpipe, but it's cool to have a lot of alternatives for everyone!
LOL, btw I haven't received notification of your reply, I saw you when I was checking my comments right now. 🤔
They should ban spez for ordering to manipulate the API and fuck user experience.
Yes, Newpipe works great, I use both because I want to interact with my favorite creators and share my history and lists with the PC so I'm forced to log in, so the best option for that is a patched YouTube app like revanced (I used to use vanced until a few months ago when they definitely killed it).
For Android:
Newpipe or Tubular (Newpipe X Sponsorblock fork)
VueTube (still under development, the team is working slow because it's pretty small, they have a few time to spend on it and they need devs, it's a complete FOSS alternative to Vanced, and will have most of its features including optional Google log in with interactions)
If you need to login and have a full YouTube experience: Revancedapp
I don't have an account and don't know how to do it.
I guess I'll take a look at it...
Something similar to what Infinity for shitdit had, we definitely need usability tweaks and better customization options, it would also be great to have different appearance settings per user and nsfw blur per user as well.
I'd love if there was a way to categorize saved posts for both account and local storage and the ability to choose to save posts to a local storage list.
Is there any possibility to have the appearance settings saved per account and not for the whole application? I have 2 accounts, one for general sfw use where I want the nsfw content to look blurry and the other for some communities sharing nsfw content, which I'd like to not look blurry. I'd also like to have different colors for the secondary account, but that's not my main "concern".
Thanks for your great work with Lemmy and the Jerboa app.
The same for the islands... We are screwed.
Gaben hates us all.
That's the way, it's important to not go back there, communities will appear because people like you and me will create an alternative to that communities.
Lemmings sounds better for the Lemmy users (idk if there's another name already).
That's what Ferawyn (I have no idea how to tag them) said:
"All" shows all posts from any community from any non blocked instance/server by your instance/server.
"Subscribed" shows only the communities you are subscribed to, no matter the instance/server it is as long as it is a non blocked one.
"Local" shows all the communities belonging to the instance/server in which you are located.
I also come from using Infinity, I'd love if it were ported to Lemmy or forked. It's FOSS, so I'm surprised there aren't any yet.
Internal viewer please, I hate external links for media (and in general having to go to an external link is a bit annoying).
