[FEATURE] Run server on device #53

Closed Immortalin closed 2 years ago

Immortalin commented 2 years ago

Describe the feature you'd like to see added Run server on device instead of relying on third party instances. The Piped backend is written in Java. The additional layer of redirection does not provide much benefit.

Additional context May want to consider calling NewPipeExtractor directly instead of relying on server.

Hmm the point of starting this app for me was that Youtube itself is banned in my country and I couldn't use newpipe or yt vanced that easily. There is not much good documentation on using newpipe extractor but I think I can get some help from it developers.
