OpenLinkWith VS AuroraStore

I use FOSS app OpenLinkWith available from Github or F-Droid

Maybe on Newpipe settings (not in app settings), see if you can set youtube.com links as default. Other option try using and app "open with" like LinkSheet, OpenLinkWith or whatever is compatible with AndroidTV

There is some great discussion in the comments, such as using a open link with app

Otherwise, you can try OpenLinkWith.

You can use try the apps setting in your setting menu to open all YouTube links with vanced or https://github.com/tasomaniac/OpenLinkWith

Here is my pick: -aurora store download apk of apps from the googleplay store. -fdroid a store for opensource apps. -aria2 to use as an advance feature rich download manager and can use to torrent. -package manager is good for when installing apkm and exporting things. -sd maid to clean unwanted folders and dead files, generally clean the phone's storage. -pdf converter might be the best app to work with pdfs. -open resources read and download books for free, also they have an audio book app too. -mindustrycool game that i like, just recommending. -vlc an ad and hassle free audio-video player. -zee archiver another choice to zarchiver. -data eraser cb phones don't really need tools like this and using without understanding is harmful to the phone. -ocr ad free and opensource ocr app. -multi filerename does what it's name says. -stealth feature rich reddit client, can be found in fdroid. -fritter twitter client. newpipe feature rich no ad youtube client. -droid splitter splits files, can be buggy sometimes but does it's job. -onlyoffice-collabora microsoft office alternative. -binary eye qr code scanner. -video transcoder transcode video. -open link with cool link tool. -touch protecter protect from accidental touches when you don't want them. -fake stand by kinda like the one above but this one saves energy. -proexpense advance miney manager. Welp thats some of my pick and sorry for the lack of upper caped characters.

Open Link With... (version 2.9-floss): Open links in native apps when you're stuck in the browser! 🚀

I have requested for adding support for files here

so, disable this bloat and replace it with, AuroraStore. or not.

Aurora Store (version 4.3.4): An unofficial FOSS client to Google Play with an elegant design and privacy

Aurora Store (version 4.2.5): An open-source alternative to Google Play Store with privacy and modern design

Good option, yes! Maybe something like Aurora Store could also be used to spoof a different (x86) device? https://gitlab.com/AuroraOSS/AuroraStore

AuroraStore

Android devices could push something like https://gitlab.com/AuroraOSS/AuroraStore or even F-Droid to get a preinstalled store that's not completely evil.

For Linux devices, if you have a powerful enough phone (Pine64, can we please have a really beefy PinePhone?), you could bundle Waydroid + Aurora/F-Droid.

Go to this link and download AuroraStore_4.2.3.apk, an open source client that fetches files directly from the Play Store servers. Here is an FAQ for the project if you're worried about safety or breaking Google ToS. This method is safe but you can choose to create a new Google account for the login if you're not comfortable using your main account.
