What can Google's app do what NewPipe can't?
- jimlikeslimes 6y agoDownload a playlist to listen offline without having to download each song individually/manually :) Edit: I'm a very, very happy new pipe user, this is literally the one feature I'm waiting for. And there is a GitHub issue being worked on for it.
- drbacon 6y agoI don't know what all NewPipe or Vanced can do, and I don't know what all YouTube's apps can do. I mostly indicated that OP's desired features were covered by the official app (without possibly downloading the audio track from a video file). I'm certainly not making an argument that NewPipe is any better or worse.
- datagram 6y agoSupport content creators? It seems like NewPipe can't even add an option to enable ads because third-party ads are against F-Droid policy.
- heinrich5991 6y agoI think you're allowed to do third party ads (as long you can display them without running proprietrary code...).

- anoncake 6y agoYou mean "expose the user to emotional manipulation through ads. That is not a feature, unless it's opt-in. A donation button or something like that would be.
- harshitaneja 6y agoYou opt-in when you decide you want to consume content made with effort by the creator and hosted with effort by youtube. In a lot of countries, you have an option to opt out of "emotional manupulation through ads" by subscribing to youtube premium.
- anoncake 6y agoYou don't understand what "opt-in" means or you're pretending you don't.
- on_and_off 6y agolots of people pretend they don't understand in this thread
