    But it doesn’t… Here are some features I like about Grayjay/NewPipe:

    • adjust volume/brightness by sliding finger on screen
    • download videos to watch offline
    • watch videos from other sources (less of an issue in a browser)
    • picture in picture

      So, what’s the difference to Firefox with some add ons then?

      That someone else gets my login data and view data to sell?

        I don’t login. Grayjay/NewPipe doesn’t send any data to its servers, so they’re not tracking viewed content. I also get subscriptions and playlists (again, w/o Youtube account) in addition to the features I mentioned. Afaik, you can’t get any of that with addons.

          How do they make money then? Nothing is free, and usually when it sounds too good, it is.

            Grayjay sells licenses for the app ($10), which doesn’t provide any benefits other than helping support the project.
