Playlist sharing

[CodeNameButtons]

Feature description

So basically in the menu where you have the option to to delete or rename a playlist think it would be by cool to have a share button

Why do you want this feature?

So I can share my playlists with friends

This would be cool. It might be hard to achieve, but even if it just an export of all the songs in the playlist in the forum of a series of links, that would be cool. Especially if those can then be imported into ViMusic.

That way I can create a playlist and share it with someone else who also uses ViMusic.

The only possible thing to do is passing the video ids in a file, which is 😐

I think that's fine, as long as that can then be imported into someone else's ViMusic app.

I would like to have playlists exportable. I would even like the solution with the IDs file.

There is something similar that was done in Newpipe idk if it helps but here you go

TeamNewPipe/NewPipe#8542

TeamNewPipe/NewPipe#9060

@PassionateG1t , Yes but when you share it, If it has more than 100+ videos, After sharing, It's very hard to know the content of the video because it will export it like individual link for all videos in a Playlist

I already have a working implementation by the way. I just want to make sure many people needs this before bloating the codebase

An idea for playlist saving and sharing:

Hyperpipe, an alternative YouTube Music frontend, allows you to share your playlists via a sharing code. See here: https://hyperpipe.surge.sh/library/

It also allows logging in with a Piped account if you have one.
There is no support for Invidious accounts though.

Ok I see my request closed because there is this open! I hope that this feature will be ready as soon as possible. It will be a great thing

I think it would be wise to avoid using another third party service. Using a linked YouTube account to host the playlist seems more likely but this will result in reduced privacy. My vote is for an m3u8 (playlist) export that would point to the full YouTube link within the playlist. This way other apps can possibly use this playlist file (VLC can play YouTube videos from just a link for example).

I can tell you I'd greatly appreciate it. I have a lot of friends who ask me for playlist recommendations but I can't share anything because I use ViMusic.

Yea we need this feature

[gbucar]

I would surely use it and if it is already implemented, why not add it to the code?

Basic export/import would do for me, Nuclear has this feature but it uses a proxy so i don't think it uses the actual IDs, instead it uses internal ones.
