It’s not an alternative to YouTube. Its just a YouTube player (among many other platforms).
On the one hand, it’s really great, and feature rich, and extremely important in the vein of improving competition in the space. On the other hand, YT is constantly pulling new tricks to break it (and similar apps), to the extent that it’s almost completely useless.
The devs are careful to point out that it’s Alpha software, however it’s been Alpha software for a long while now, which doesn’t fill me with confidence.
I’ve been using GJ as my primary way of watching YT since launch, daily, and I can only remember one instance where YT broke and they hadn’t released a plugin update yet. I’d hardly call nearly 2y of use with 1 issue instance “completely useless”.
That’s because I wasn’t talking about your personal experience, believe it or not.
Yet you make it sound like it’s global, believe it or not.
