By “Developer of the Newpipe app”
Hmm…
Unverified
It’s a “No” from me. I’ll stick to Freetube.
For those unaware, being verified means it is packaged by the official developer/team.
If you look at the description you can see that they clearly say that it isn’t official:
NOTE: This is an unofficial and experimental Flatpak build based on Android Translation Layer. Please report bugs to the ATL bug tracker instead of the NewPipe bug tracker https://gitlab.com/android_translation_layer/android_translation_layer/-/issues.
Don’t know why they’d put “Developer of the Newpipe app” as dev though
malicious intent
One could also think that whoever packaged this was hurried while filling a form, and wanted to provide credit where it was due. So, maybe they were on the best of their intents… We don’t know.
If I were to use this, I would check other apps from same uploader. Or better, see what permissions are being asked…
In any case, trusting blindly github contributors on teamnewpipe organization is not extremely different.
Trust and credibility are volatile and freely given. It’s youtube, not my bank account ;p
I think they can improve UI.
super scuffed due to translation layer. wait for kotlin rewrite and hope for multiplatform
Love how when the dev of this felt compelled to link to atl, their browser gave them the link with /-/issues at the end. Really shows the effort that went into porting.
This is great news.
