Music streaming isn’t a software thing, it’s a service. Who provides the service that this client uses?

Youtube apparently.
All this software provides is eliminate tracking in the client side unless it uses stuff like invidious or piped
Essentially, this is a wrapper around YouTube. So like newpipe, but with a music focus and I imagine a metadata library like musicbrainz.
Yarrrr!
Sadly the automatic songpicker does not work for my usecase.
The only thing I have seen work correctly without dumping me into a non-music video after 3 steps are mixes, which this app does not appear to use.
So it's still revanced for me.
Everything else about it is great. It seems a lot more reliable and light weight compared to yt, and the easy way to make videos offline-available is nice too.
If I could just add my dedicated mix-algorithm-gaming account and use that to get access to mixes (which google locked behind a login requirement some years ago) this would be perfect.
This is exactly what I wanted. Thank you for posting it!
Huh, is this a fork of innertune?
No, doesn't seem so.
