Blorp dev here. Let me know if there is anything I can do to make the app even better for you!
This is one of the things I love. Talk about something you like, creator shows up. Wholesome.
hey, nice to meet you here! I was wondering if it's a problem that only I have or if it's still in development but I have issues playing videos inside blorp. Could you please help? I really like blorp's UI and I don't want to change.
Nice to meet you too! Could you be more specific? Which type of video are you trying to play? If you're unsure, could you send me a link to the post? Either here of via private message.
Video playback could definitely be improved in general, though it's a bit tough because there are like 5 different types of video embeds and they all work a little different.
for example, I tried to play this video but it didn't work.
not sure if the problem is on my side or not.

EDIT: I forgot to thank you for your help and time, it's nice to see devs so dedicated to their projects
Found the issue. Good catch! Will fix in the next release.
Keep it up, you're awesome!
Out of curiosity, why foes F-Droid warn about anti-features?
The F-Droid maintainers added that. It’s probably my fault for not explaining my app well. At the time, I just really wanted to get Blorp on F-Droid, so I didn’t make any sort of argument against the anti feature labels. After that, my focus was mainly on improving the app itself, and I never went back to ask them to change it.
But you’re not the first person to mention this. I should probably fix it.
Ty ,great app , greatings from Belgium
