I am going to add the features requested here: https://www.reddit.com/r/oldyoutubelayout/s/oxpOOIq7CZ @ErikaXGH
I also put in a new invidious url which is 10x better, but however it's not niche as yt.omada.cafe because it's listed as an official instance so who knows what could happen later

I'm also going to add this and i'm leaving this here so i don't forget:
Expflag to move the comments page to the details page (bottom left) on iPad instead of the side (collapsing comments expflag on phone)
Expflag to show @ names on comments (unfortunately with the ratelimits on the CORS proxy its not possible to go and request each channel name which what happens now)
Expflag to turn off the highlight on a pinned comment
Expand the description of the custom invidious url expflag

Also maybe fix #57 if it is not fixed by the time i finish all that (pls edit perms i'm carrying (but i also see you editing my code so i'm sorry if it is too low quality))

Update I'm also going to add in these too:

  • bigger hitbox for the video slider
  • Function to change the invidious url to blank to reset it, which will be useful because everyone's still going to be on the old url when this gets merged
  • Fix the subscriptions icon, it always had square borders not rounded
    (Credit to ios reminders app)

And @ErikaXGH @CIIOIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL gave me the suggestions to add a inbox and camera button so I'm doing that too (And someone wanted the new library icon)

  • Subscriptions icon change
  • Ytm15 Offline Library?

Add sections to the settings page, like “how to add ytm2015 as a webapp” and maybe even some fake ones like “send feedback” or “Your data in YouTube”

W combo, the cors proxy has the best ratelimits and the invidious instance has a non-disabled popular page
I accidentally did a open file search instead of a current project search in kate

For the cast button? I can do that too but if there becomes another misc thing to add then the cast and camera icons will become seperate

Reddit post expflag 1
I'm doing this in my nwea testing lol
@CIIOIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

I have the same probem on ios 16 iphone, but on a ios 15 ipad it doesn't show the ios player, but the fullscreen doesn't work. i'm probably not the one to fix this since you need a real phone to debug this and I'm working on this project solely when i'm in school and i'm bored so i can't just pull out my phone (and i definitely can't show a webserver on the local network because the school wifi blocks it

@CIIOIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

I’m wondering the same thing, you explained it just fine, I think @CIIOIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL misread “where” as “when”

He would do it later. But @legoskid can you fix the videos not starting unless you click the play button. Have it play automatically.

If that's fixable, I wonder if it's also possible to fix Me at the zoo. For whatever reason it's just a black screen on YTm15

If Me and the zoo is affected then my guess is other 4:3 resolution vids are, so those should be fixed too incase

Here’s what Me at the zoo does:
IMG_1335
It might be API related because it displays the video as being 0:00 and shows an endless loading spinner

Here’s what Me at the zoo does: IMG_1335 It might be API related because it displays the video as being 0:00 and shows an endless loading spinner

It's because the video loads but when it shows the thumbnail that you're supposed to press play on, it errors out because
image
the API gives a list of thumbnails and ytm15 chooses the fourth (index's start at 0) thumbnail (probably the highest-quality) but since me in the zoo is well, the first youtube video there's probably one thumbnail ever made it's that old. So when the error happens and the video never gets set it just cancels everything

This is kinda rushed, condenses the numbers too, also replies and the comment counts

Home page won't load and comments. So I've been thinking if the server for the api is down, it automatically switches with ones that are working.
