Quick shout-out to Grayjay: An app to watch videos on any platform - reducing the power of individual services. The Software is open-source and can be found here: https://gitlab.futo.org/videostreaming/grayjay

I will test this out for myself and hope someone here finds this useful.

    It’s viewable source, the license does not allow modification and distribution of the modifications. The license also reserves the right to be revoked at any time.

    It’s source available, but it is not what most people would consider open source in the common usage.

    I wish somewhere on their site or anywhere in that description they’d say “Android App”.

    I was a little disappointed as an iOS user browsing their site trying to find the iOS App Store link 😬.

    Edit: I appreciate the advice to switch to Android but I really wasn’t asking. 😅

    amazed at the number of upvotes considering this software’s aim is to specifically combat de-platforming of creators, a practice that is by and large supported by the fake progressive community making up the majority on lemmy.
