An app that makes updating FreeTube from nightly build artifacts more automated by giving you a direct download link to the newest artifact.
There is a simple one-time setup for using this app:
-
copy
config.sample.json
toconfig.json
in/rel/freetube_updater/config
-
fill in the three values in file

- I know this is inconvenient, but it takes just a minute or two and it's necessary, because GitHub doesn't allow downloading artifacts for non-logged users.
