These are all unique and different projects with their own codebases, devs and issues. If you want to learn more, try searching for their official git repos. If you want to see a quick list of YouTube related apps, with screenshots, feature lists, and links to the project pages then I suggest using F-Droid with the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid Repo enabled, and just searching youtube.

For a bit more details on how yo do that check out my other comment https://lemmy.world/comment/15622037.

Schools are surveilling kids. (Full stop)

I think it's important to ask some basic questions to all affected school district superintendents.

  1. Why is the school resorting to surveilling my child?
  2. What data is collected on my child?
  3. Who do the schools share my child's information with?
  4. How is my child's data collected?
  5. When is my child's data deleted?

I'm sure you an come up with more.

In This specific example, the issue was purely with the community and sole moderator.

The moderation not so much the content was what was wrong with it.

Linux needs criticism and you hear the voices of the less tech savvy if it wants to grow its user base and gain wider adoption, similar to lemmy. But if that discussion is a bad faith, "Linux is bad and you can't change my mind" posts, with enforcement via moderation, then it's not useful to anyone really.

I've been don't this as an American for years.

Why doesn't the US test baby car seats for side impacts but the EU does?

Why does the US allow Teflon pans but the EU doesn't?

Why does the the US not federally regulate internet privacy in meaningful ways but the EU has GDPR?

The answer for all these is that the EU keeps its citizens safe while the US keeps its billionaires safe.

This is exactly what Elon Musk and Peter Thiel want, to own city states as kings using neo-feudalism.

You can totally just install the latest release straight from the git repository. However, how often will you remember to check if there is a new release? If you want your apps to stay up-to-date you have 2 options. (Ordered from least effort to most effort)

  1. F-Droid (minimal setup, slower releases)
  • Install F-Droid or one of the many 3rd party clients (I like Droid-ify the most right now)
  • enable the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid Repoin the Repository settings of the F-Droid client
  • install FreeTube Android
  1. Obtainium (moderate setup, quickest releases)
  • Install the latest release of Obtainium directly from the git repo
  • go to app configurations search for Obtainium and click on the add to Obtainium button so that Obtainium can update itself when there is a new release.
  • In Obtainium, click on Add App. Then insert the release page URL for FreeTube Android (https://github.com/MarmadileManteater/FreeTubeAndroid/releases) as the value for App Source URL, then click the Add button next to it and you are set.
