      Yes it is: https://github.com/MarmadileManteater/FreeTubeAndroid

      Works well, and you can sync history, playlists etc with SyncThing.

        What do you mean by “just a webview”? As far as I know, FreeTube does not exist as a web client that can then just be displayed in an in-app browser.

          as far as I see freetube is just written in html, css and Javascript, then all of that thrown into an Electron app. you can run these elements without Electron in any browser, it just won’t have access to as many device features as the app does.

          I’ve built a web version here from the source just to try it out. it’s somewhat buggy but it does work
