incredibly useful product. pretty sure 'background play' is a paid feature on default droid youtube[1]. newpipe does it out of the box. I don't object to paying for youtube but I do object to them linking my watch activity to my account. guessing youtube is constantly trying to kill this, just like ytdl, but for now amazing work keeping it up 1. https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7437614

There a version of the NewPipe app which contains the SponsorBlock plugin. I use it since months and can't watch YouTube videos without it anymore.

I'm anti being-stalked-through-my-entire-life-and-having-my-details-sold-like-I'm-a-cheap-peice-of-meat, and unfortunately ATM blocking that also means blocking most online adverts. So I draw the line before sponsorblock. At least the content creators get a better cut of that than they get from YouTube monetisation & youtube can't take it away from them as easily at…

The way the DMCA works, to my understanding, Google has to accept the notice, unless NewPipe submits a counter notice, which can be done here: https://support.google.com/legal/troubleshooter/1114905 Proceed as if reporting infringement, and the option will appear to specify this is a counter report. If the reporter chooses to continue, the next step is with the courts.

> Google has to accept the notice, unless NewPipe submits a counter notice, They don’t have to accept it-they can choose to ignore or reject it. However, if they choose to ignore/reject it, and the notifier then sues them, they may lose one of their legal defences. Obviously they decide that most of the time complying is the legally less risky path, so most of the time they comply. However, if they get a DMCA request…

The French invented the word chauvinism :) They take their language very seriously likewise. I work for a French company and even though the official language is English you're kind of a second rate citizen if you don't speak it. Or write last names in all caps or quotation marks like > :) They just are that way :P

Space before exclamation or question mark is basically 100% accurate indicator of Francophone writing.
