  • Similar in feature set on Desktop, but we'll also be optionally adding support for Materialious account system in future what will provide things like settings, watch history, watch progress & subscription syncing between devices.

    This is mostly all already implemented with end-to-end encryption in Materialious as a web server.

  • Materialious can be deployed in a lot of ways.

    It can be used purely as a Invidious frontend.

    You can use it as a web server with its own YouTube engine and account system.

    Or you can use it as a Desktop & Mobile app with or without Invidious.

    Or you can even go into the advanced settings and choose when you want to use Invidious APIs or Materialious

  • We altcha whats a proof of work captcha. Are you getting any console errors? You do have to wait for the captcha to complete for a bit too.

  • This can actually use Invidious as its backend if someone wants to.

    Its basically just a more feature rich Invidious whata easier to deploy.

  • Yeah if you are running a private instance, you look like legitimate traffic to Google.

  • Invidious is currently broken due to Google changing things trying to stop 3rd party clients. But eventually Invidious will catch up and Google will give up for a bit.

  • Is there any proprietary Android app for which you wish there would be an open-source alternative?

    Jump

  • yea considering its FOSS it was good enough compared to a lot of the other clients for me to move away from Symfonium

  • Don't see many mentions to Waterfox?

    Jump

  • Waterfox is a neat project, but is often slow to implement security patches from Firefox upstream.

  • Materialious - Desktop & Android client

    Jump

  • Materialious doesn't use remote fonts by default, only as a backup if local font loading fails. For some reason ublock in hard mode makes local font fail loading & remote font is used.

  • Materialious - Desktop & Android client

    Jump

  • Materialious contains zero trackers. Believe this was a issue with ublock falsely flagging local fonts as trackers or something, someone else open a issue on the repo with a similar issue. Feel free to review the source code for any trackers.

  • Expanding Materialious to other platforms

    Jump

  • It requires the Invidious instance to have the correct COR values for Materialious, but yes connects to a existing instance.

  • Expanding Materialious to other platforms

    Jump

  • Materialious does currently just use Invidious' API. If extending it requires a custom backend it will be a completely different project (what will still be using Invidious)

  • Expanding Materialious to other platforms

    Jump

  • Isn't just a theme, is a completely different application built on top of Invidious' API. What works completely differently to Invidious' current UI. A LOT of things are handled different then how Invidious handles it on their frontend. Replacing Invidious current interface with Materialious isn't a good idea, because its quite a bit bigger & requires JS compared to Invidious' current UI.

    Calling Materialious a theme would be like calling clipious a theme.

  • I believe loading videos directly works, but discover/trending doesn't to my understanding.

  • Expanding Materialious to other platforms

    Jump

  • Yea just need to avoid it from being bloated. The idea would be to have a global feed, what you can filter by platform.

  • Expanding Materialious to other platforms

    Jump

  • Yea, Materialious is a bit more complex then a theme as it has a lot of custom client side logic (Like sync parties, playlists, etc).

    If I expanded Materialious you'd still be able to use just Invidious or Safetwitch etc.

    But Materialious at its core would still be built off the API of giants. So it wouldn't be reinventing the wheel for scrapping/handling data from twitch, YouTube etc.

    Haven't used Proxitok in a while, so not sure if its working currently. Seems to be in active development tho. Misspoken, doesn't appear to be working & hasn't been updated in awhile

  • Home page is the "popular" page what is pulled from Invidious' API. Basically just the popular videos people have been watching on that instance.
