One of the things I like doing in the YouTube app is having infinite scroll on the recommendation screen.

One of the issues I find with apps like Newpipe and Greyjay, is that the recommendations are very limited compared to actual YouTube app.

I’m not sure if there’s a better forum to ask this, but does anyone know if the grayjay app allows for unlimited scrolling?

Privacy based apps like that don’t try to run the ‘algorithm’ on you to track what sort of content you do and don’t like.

So, they don’t build a profile of you to recommend content. Welcome to privacy.

Edit: Hey, at least you get to search for what you want.

For me, that’s a feature, not a bug.
