Strange, I’ve had a video that crashed newpipe every time but now it seems to play fine. Maybe because it was a “Coming soon” video? Anyways it seems like it works fine now, I also had a bug where leaving the app would crash the app instead of doing background play but I also can’t get it to occur again. I’ll edit my original comment.

Well, thanks for sharing! The more options the better!

For everyone on Android, you can just patch the youtube app using ReVanced, which will remove ads, add sponsorblock, allow you to hide shorts and the “People also watched” sections. It can be pretty tricky to patch if you don’t know what you’re doing so feel free to tell me if you run into any issues.

If you don’t care about the algorithm and your feed, you can get the third-party client NewPipe, it’s FOSS but sometimes crashes while reading some videos It does not seem to crash anymore, so good thing!

Pick one!

As someone in Europe,

• I still have AI in paint (to create images), but I think it’s opt-in
• I don’t have Copilot, but I think it’s integrated to Microsoft Edge (but you can uninstall it)
• I still have onedrive by default, but you can also uninstall it
• I don’t have recall (or maybe I do but it’s disabled, either way I can’t open it)
• Microsoft still pushes you super hard to use an account

So here’s what to expect if you manage to change your region. I have no idea on how to do that however.

Besides Funkwhale, I’m not sure there is anything else at the moment (someone please correct me if I’m wrong)

There are radios on Funkwhale, but these are just a random playlist of songs from a set list (like “Piano radio” for example)

Peertube has a livestreaming function that could be used as a radio closer to the actual sense of the word (with someone animating it), but it would take a lot of effort and I haven’t found any radio channels on Peertube. If you have a great idea, go for it and it might take off! 🎉

You should check out this fork by the person who made CTGP7, there are portable releases

Here’s a fork of Citra that can connect to the official nintendo network, still avilable now, by the person who made CTGP7 (custom tracks and characters in MarioKart 7), and here’s the one for Yuzu. I think these are gonna be the main forks because they already have quite a lot of activity. It’s cool that Citra and Yuzu were open-source so things like this can be made!

Go for it! I think it really helps getting around more easily! Once you learn it you won’t forget even if you don’t ride your bike for a long time, so it’s worth it IMO!
