Microtube
This app is an alternative youtube client. You can watch videos and subscribe to channels. Subscriptions are offline.
WARNING: This app requires yt-dlp to work, installation of yt-dlp as well as keeping it updated is user's responsibility. You also will need deno if you want to seek with avc1 (+ on some videos it provides formats normally not available without it). In diagnostics (settings -> pulldown menu) you can verify that microtube can use yt-dlp, and for microtube to use yt-dlp it needs to be in standard path (/usr/bin worked for me, but adding path in .profile did not).
Instructions on how to install yt-dlp/deno
Subscriptions import and liking/disliking video is only available if you add api key but API KEY IS NOT REQUIRED if it's not clear enough.
Subscriptions can be imported. Import is in pulldown menu on subscriptions page.
Youtube api key instructions: here
To cast to jupii, jupii needs to be running first and connected to device.
Microtube uses SponsorBlock plugin

Really nice app for a 0.1.
Clean UI and plays videos without any issue.
The only issue I encountered is when you first launch (just after a fresh install) it. No view count and nothing plays. After a restart it works fine.
Are you open for PR's on Github?

Yeah probably, if I understand it correctly, youtube-dl isn't used but a custom thing from Minitube to retrieve videos
