discussion WizeStream vs LibreTube: which YouTube client has the best usability?

I just installed both of them, and was using NewPipe before. I'd like to ask you guys which do you prefer!

NewPipe was always my go-to but LibreTube just feels snappier on my phone, the pip mode works way better on my aging device. WizeStream I only messed with for a few minutes before it started nagging me about something so I bailed

PipePipe is Newpipe with some additional features if you are interested.

I'd lean toward LibreTube if usability is the main priority. The interface feels more modern, and features like SponsorBlock are a nice bonus. The main downside is that playback can depend on the Piped instance you're using, so reliability can vary. WizeStream seems worth trying too, especially if you prefer something closer to the NewPipe experience. Curious to see how they compare after using both for a while.

If you installed both why asking?

It takes time to see which one I prefer.
