    I wonder, are there any decent open source apps available for IOS? Asking for a friend, an Android envious friend, (actually my wife)

        Apple and FOSS is dedinitely an antithesis but it’s kinda rude to disapprove Apple that heavily, even though I’m a hater too.

      Yattee, it’s an invidious/piped frontend, so you’ll need to find an instance for one, but it’s on the app store or can be sideloaded.

      There’s that and uYou+/uYou+ extra which needs to be sideloaded via AltStore or other methods, but doesn’t need a piped or invidious instance and accesses YouTube directly
