Show HN: I have created an open-source version of YouTube Red
imshyam.github.ioNote that the title refers to YouTube PIP on Android. (YouTube Red encompasses a large number of features and the HN title is ambiguous)
The main feature is that you can play videos in parallel with other applications. YouTube Red facilitates it.
One addition thing is that you can see the video in minimized window, not in YouTube Red.
Have you considered submitting it to F-Droid? (https://f-droid.org/) Could be a nice addition to the FOSS listings there.
Thanks for the suggestion, I have submitted now.
I'm guessing the APK on Google Drive is because this does not comply with Youtube terms ?
Yo! You guessed right man.
On a serious note: My app was rejected because it plays YouTube videos in the background, but there are others apps like ListenOnRepeat(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.youtuberep...) which also do the same.
I did not get any satisfactory reply from google about what in particular I was doing wrong, even after asking multiple times.
this is not the first time when I read this... what's happening with google lately?
I love your product page!
