YouTube Music,
SoundCloud,
Bandcamp, and PeerTube etc. Add SponsorBlock to this to skip unwanted scenes.











Comments and Reviews
A simple fork of NewPipe, which add support for Sponsorblock, in case you disagree with the NewPipe devs maintainers, that a service allowing you to setup, share and vote to skip annoying video intros, outros, non-musical scenes in music videos, and sponsored ads is beneficial to you.
Newpipe but better!
Replaced YouTube Revanced on my Tablet. It's nice to have forks
"Tubular is described as 'A fork of NewPipe that implements SponsorBlock and Return YouTube Dislike'."
Pros : ✅ FOSS and private ✅ Free YouTube Premium version : ad-free, picture-in-picture mode, background playing, audio, video and subtitles download. Also supports ad-free versions of SoundCloud, Bandcamp and PeerTube. ✅ No account required, yet ability to create "channel groups" with different subscriptions ✅ Playlist creation ✅ It's possible to import and export your subscriptions, history, playlists and settings ✅ Ability to play blocked videos ✅ A customizable interface ✅ Numerous languages available and customizable content geolocation ✅ Great possibilities with settings
Meh : ✅❌ "Trending videos" tab (can't be disabled) ✅❌ No recommendation algorithm
Cons: ❌ A little slow sometimes ❌ Available only on Android ❌ The tabs are a bit messy, and the interface is too different from YouTube's in my opinion. ❌ No automatic update of subscription feed
🙏 Thanks to the developers and the open-source and libre community.
Newpipe but with sponsorblock and return youtube dislike, works great.

You might be confusing tubular with newpipe
I meant *NewPipeXSponsorBlock
The project is now called "tubular"
it works most of the times even when youtube updates, unlike newpipe
