@youmeego please show a bit respect to the developer, and at least explain why you think it is bad, and how it could be improved!

The developer doesn't have much time to work on it, but you are always free to submit pull requests: https://github.com/tworaz/sailfish-ytplayer

I stumbled upon this sympathetic initiative: Be my eyes.
From their website: "Be My Eyes is an app that connects blind people with volunteer helpers from around the world via live video chat. Download now and start helping blind people see"

It is open source available on Github. But looking at it, it may be some work to port it. Primarily Objective-C for iOS.

That looks really great, although it's a shame they 'gameified' it. Do people help blind people to do a good deed, or to rack up more points than their friends?

I don't see what's wrong with it? I've been using it for the last couple of months and every release makes it better and better. Sure, it misses a few features like upload for example but for searching videos, watching videos and watching your subscriptions it's very, very good. Best app I've ever used in that regard (counting in both desktop and mobile apps) :)

A couple of months ago I would've said "no" 'cause I'm not gonna watch movies and TV shows on a phone (waaaay too small screen - I prefer 8" and up for watching movies and TV shows). But with the Jolla Tablet on the rise (and me being one of the first ones to get it!) they may create a Netflix app now :)

for anyone else interested i've got a build of rtorrent on my mer OBS repository http://repo.merproject.org/obs/home:...atest_armv7hl/

Updated package with xmlrpc-c enabled, works pretty well with tmux to make a systemd unit

use the following to set up your rtorrent.rc file:
Code:

cp /usr/share/doc/rtorrent/rtorrent.rc ~/.rtorrent.rc
Looking at building nginx or some other lightweight scgi server so we can have an rtorrent daemon with a silica front end or using something like rutorrent on the tablet would work pretty well i think.

why do you need a youtube app when you can just use the browser?
