    Fair enough. I completely forgot about peertube. Been using newpipe predominantly and odysee was the first alternative that came to mind.

    Thanks for reminding me about peer tube. A client recommendation would be great. I’ve used p2play.

    Edit: I actually looked into the whole odysee debacle and it’s disgusting,so I will try to use peertube (newpipe also supports it,but,again,completely forgot about it).
