This is great news.
Does this run on x86/64 bit systems? Or this is for Linux smartphones more.
That’s awesome

Freetube on desktop Linux hasn’t worked for me for a long time - but that doesn’t seem to be the case for most people. Any tips regarding settings? I’d say it’s been at least 3 or 4 months since I could reliably use it.
If you have it set to use the Invidious backend that might be the issue, since most Invidious instances don’t work at the moment.
Thank you! I actually tried setting the invidious options yesterday before making that post, thinking I might need to use that instead of localapi. But as you have predicted, no dice.
Edit - works fine after updating today lol!

Edit: Disregard my original reply, updated today and now it works again lol!
It launches for me (and I am in a plasma-wayland session FWIW), and it loads the thumbnails for all videos with no problem. When I click a video as if to play it, it appears to load up the main page for that video complete with play button, but nothing at all happens when I click the play button. Along the way are various api errors from youtube, but I think some of those came in even when things were working for me.
Basically I can get this far for any video:
Is it possible to sync freetube between phone and pc?
Android translation layer is interesting. Well, at least I personally like this approach more than that of waydroid. Also would be nice to see the performance of that with binfmt compared to that of waydroid + libhoudini

Gray Jay was awesome while it worked. unfortunately for me, YouTube sources simply spin forever instead of playing the video.

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
Finally
…The Rock has come back to Flatpak!
