From Reddit saved post — r/selfhosted, u/Matszwe02, Jul 03 2026 https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1umnl1i/ytdlp_web_player_the_best_alternative_to_revanced/ [https://github.com/Matszwe02/ytdlp\_web\_player](https://github.com/Matszwe02/ytdlp_web_player) Hi there, that's my third release on this sub, and finally a stable one! This software is a self-hosted web player that plays (almost) every video on the internet. It plays without ads at all of the resolutions, supports sponsorblock and implements many features, explained further in my repo. You can replace youtube's video player with this one (using browser extension, or a tampermonkey script), watch videos directly on the player's website, or inside PWA app on your phone (which works as good as native players). I meantioned youtube, but this player works on almost every website imaginable, as it uses YT-DLP, which itself supports everything except pirated content. A lot changed from the last release - the app is now more stable, doesn't need any transcoding to work, and fully supports livestreams. Extension works more flawlessly, even more videos load in 3 seconds. Let me know what you like, what not, or if you have any suggestions, so I can address them in the future releases!
