We use a cache of XML results to keep things fast. At the moment it is set to 30 mins. You can change this by modifying
CACHE_EXPIRY_TIME = 1800in app.py. -
You should ensure that
app.secret_key = 'your_secret_key_here'is set to something unique. -
max_resultsis currently set to 48, on line 41. If you follow a larger number of channels, you may want to increase this number!
Zerotube WILL NOT remove ads. If you are a Youtube user with a Premium membership using this app on desktop (as intended), then you will have the best viewing experience.
