I saw this app featured on a YouTube channel and thought it was pretty interesting, especially for GNOME users. However there is a rather weird thing about it: it claims to be using Piped for YouTube but it doesn’t get the “Sign in to confirm that you’re not a bot” error. I guess it uses a different API when Piped gives an error.
Piped has been having problems with it lately. Pretty sure it’s YouTube cracking down on FOSS alternative APIs
Why are Piped or Invidious used here or in FreeTube? Aren’t they serving the same functions?
the Flatpak version isn’t able to find the playlist/subscription JSON files in the file picker on my system
Random guess: Install flatseal and use it to give permissions to that folder.

tell me more, because a similar thing happened with EOG which i fixed with flatseal but pipline wouldn’t find the files even when i granted it access to the whole file system
I think it may not have playlist support yet.
Are you sure that it is indeed using piped or proxy instead of googlevideo.com?
The Gitlab page says it is using Piped and there are mentions of it in the app itself.
