![]() ![]() ![]() The last I heard was that the Invidious API was being retired, and I do recall summat about the author stepping-down from development.Ī year or so on, and what a difference. Like Keef, I gave up on it around 0.7.2/0.7.3 buggy as hell.99 times out of 100 it wouldn't connect at all. I was taken by this when I first tried it out, sometime early last year I think. The 'forward' and 'back' arrows are an improvement, as previously if you were watching a video, then went to the side panel, you could not get back to it without reloading it (if the arrows were in fact there before, they certainly didn't work well).

Gave up on it eventually as it was slow and buggy. Another noticeable difference is that, unlike YT, FT does not continuously adapt the list of related videos in the right column according to your presumed liking. When I enabled the proxy media server in Settings, I got higher formats, downloading videos became functional, and in one video even audio playback was stereo.

Self-standing means using its so-called "local API", the current default, as opposed to its remotely-hosted API, the current fallback when the local API fails. I visited the author's blog and learned that FreeTube is going through a major rewrite to make it self-standing. ![]()
