@sigmaklimgrindset well, for one, it is a completely separate app

No seriously, where ReVanced is a collection of patches for the official YouTube app(s) (and some others)

NewPipe is a built-from-the-ground, independent, no-Google-Code YouTube client that relies entirely on scraping the website using NewPipeExtractor

As such, the entire experience apart from the content itself differs.

@unterzicht that IS it's use. It is primarily used in show-off posts where people present their systems so that people in the replies can get a quick glance on what they're running.

The reason this is big news is because neofetch was by far the biggest project of it's kind

@big_slap

Fun fact:
The entirety of bluesky was supposed to be an activity pub extension at some point.

@Benjamin its basically automatic e-mail in the sense that it doesn't matter what e-mail provider you're on but you can still contact each other across mail providers

Here you can substitute mail providers with social media platforms, and it happens ✨automagically✨, without anyone doing anything

To put this into perspective, I see hundreds of posts that aren't by people that signed up on wetdry.world on my home feed, and I can still interact with them, yet wetdry.world is my home.

Maybe the little explanation video on https://fediverse.info helps

@Benjamin they're all connected :)

I'm writing to you from mastodon (hence all my replies start by pinging you)

Lemmy does format some things in lemmy-specific ways, but other than that all our posts can be viewed anywhere, and I can slap any lemmy thread into my mastodon UI to reply to whoever I want

@Benjamin account removal can be done on https://my.telegram.org if I recall right.

Also...someone OTHER THAN ME linked this? That's rare

Matrix is currently in a bit of a weird place as funding is low. Its alright, but dont expect Telegram-level UX. Element is also re-making their mobile apps as part of Element X.

@Benjamin oh there are other reasons not to use it

(full disclosure: that is my document, I maintain and update it)

@matcha_addict you can make it however big or small you want 🤷

@matcha_addict the keyboard experience is quite literally just your device's keyboard

Maybe you wanna try Unexpected Keyboard?
