Yattee is so much slower than uYOU. You can also go to any instance url on safari browser and add it to the homescreen and use inviduous as a webapp. But neither one works as good as uYOU when I’m out on the road.

Even more of a pain for me because I am on Linux so have to spin up my Windows 11 VM just to use altstore.

Invidious has a bug where it doesn’t update as frequently as it’s supposed to. I’ve had this issue on both my self hosted and public instances. I’m thinking about switching to freetube. Always hear about it but never tried it

I use tailscale. Too easy to setup

I was using nextcloud at first but kept having sync issues. I use syncthing to sync my Libre office docs and it always disconnects on my Android. I bought Mobious a few months back to sync photos from my iPhone and it always disconnected. So I switched to photosync. So in other words syncthing hasn’t really been reliable for me. I use a free Dropbox account and haven’t had any issues since. And the best thing about Joplin desktop is there is a Backup plugin, so if my Dropbox ever went down, I still have multiple Backups saved locally and on my Proton Drive.

I have been using Joplin with Dropbox sync. Syncs between my Desktop, Android, and iOS devices. Switched from Google Keep a few months back. Great app.

Yup. Same way I do it.

Use to do it individually. Now I do it all from one Master compose.

You dont need tampermonkey for Ublock Origin and Video Background Play Fix. It’s under add-ons when you go to settings.

I use Revanced, but keep Firefox Youtube and invidious as backups.

Here’s another trick. Go to youtube and then go to your Firefox menu and check “desktop site”. And then you can install it as a PWA on your Homescreen. Don’t worry, when you open it up for the first time from your Homescreen, it will be back in Mobile web format.

This essentially makes it an isolated app from your browser. Not cluttering up your history and tabs.

Don’t forget the “Video Background Play Fix” add on. That paired with the adblocking makes it where you can watch ad free YouTube while in another app or even with the screen off.

Vaultwarden ftw

Invidious

Makes sense

This is exactly what I need to do. I have a custom domain attached to Protonmail. I’ve been using duck duck go for aliases with Bitwarden but this solution sounds perfect. I always wondered what that catch all option meant.

Use Duck Duck Go email protection. It’s free and works great. And they even enabled replies

One thing I forgot to mention: when you turn your screen off or switch to another app, the video playback will stop. The easy way around this is to use Firefox Mobile. Go to settings > add ons and enable the “Video Background Play Fix” add-on. Now your video will keep playing in the background when the screen is off.

Same thing for Android. I have YouTube Revanced on my Android but been using iNVidious a lot more instead. It’s much less noisy without the YouTube suggestions algorithm and you can see only the videos that YOU want to see.

Just go here and pick an instance and go to the webpage. Then add it to your home screen as a Web app. And you’re done. You can make a login to sync your subscription and playlists across all of your devices too.

Also, you could take it a step further and host your own instance if you know how to spin up docker containers. That’s what I did. But you don’t need to. You could always just use one of the many public instances.

Are you on iOS? Invidious works with the screen off in iOS 17
