Had no idea Newpipe was that much more stable, responsive, and faster than it’s fork. Wasn’t hard to decide to uninstall the fork. Don’t even miss sponsorblock.

      Can NewPipe do something similar? Sorry I’m a bit confused what the two have to do with each other

        There is a fork of NewPipe which includes Sponsorblock integration. It’s maintained by different people because the main dev of the official NewPipe wanted to keep it simple.

        Sponsorblock can be used in various addons. They’re talking about the newpipe that has sponsorblock built in vs the stock one.

            Happy to help. If you’re on android you can get YouTube ReVanced to block ads and get Sponsorblock integration in something like the official YouTube app too.

              Can you upload your subscription list to ReVanced like you can with NewPipe and Invidious?

                You sign in with your actual account, so everything is being kept in sync automatically. Even watch history.

        NewPipe devs have this dumb idea that adding SponsorBlock support is unethical even though there is no way for companies to tell their ads are being skipped and, more importantly, NewPipe views doesn’t even count and they already make that software.
