   @pnutzh4x0r @nekohayo Would it be possible to have Gnome Web auto open YT links in FreeTube or some other installed YT application? As a workaround.

     @pnutzh4x0r For what it's worth, playing YouTube video kinda works here on Epiphany 47.2 on Fedora, and on the "Epiphany technology preview" flatpak version, but you might be encountering https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=289194, or https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=245852

     @nekohayo After installing "gstreamer1.0-fdkaac" I can now play the first 20 seconds of some YouTube videos before epiphany stalls out... so it looks like I am now hitting one of the bugs you linked:

     https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=289194

     What's interesting is that I can play ads completely fine (and they are sadly not skippable).

     Some progress, I guess.

     Given all the mixed messages coming from @mozillaofficial about privacy, I've decided to give #gnome web (aka #epiphany) a shot...

     It's pretty minimal, but I kinda like that. Only glaring issue is that it can't play YouTube videos :{

     That and the lack of vi/vim navigation :|

     I'll continue using it for a few days... maybe it will be good enough.
