From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

- Works everywhere -available as Flatpak for maximum compatibility, no need to mess with system files
Works everywhere -available as Flatpak
Don't you mean Works everywhere where Flatpak is available?
How about "Works everywhere and is available as a flatpak for convenience"? Maybe that was the intended message?
Isn't flatpak available in all distros?
People love hating on flatpak for some reason. Maybe they only have 256MB of storage or something.
(how) does it work on phones?
Yes it work on arm cpu fine on my oneplus6 post market os I am watching freetube in flatpak
Being available as a flatpak doesnt mean it will only run as a flatpak.
Turns out this is also available in Alpine repositories, so I went ahead and installed it on my phone. Could come in handy when browsing from public Wi-Fi or such. Thanks for the tip.
Great app. Using it on my phone for about a year.
total noob question, apologies. but does this run alongside a VPN?
Yes it does.
