Open-source SoundCloud alternatives

NewPipe is a lightweight, libre app for Android that acts as a front end to streaming services. It is written in Java and released under the GPL-3.0 license. Rather than embedding each service's official app, it reads content from the services directly and presents video and audio in a single interface. The README marks the app as beta, so users may encounter bugs and are asked to report them with the issue template.

It currently supports YouTube and YouTube Music, PeerTube and all its instances, Bandcamp, SoundCloud and media.ccc.de. The project started with YouTube, and other contributors have added services over the years. Its topics also mention downloading videos and playback in 4K.

The README carries a prominent notice that publishing NewPipe or a fork of it on Google Play breaks Google's terms, and that the NewPipe word mark is a registered trademark with its own policy. The documentation covers screenshots, features, installation and updates, contribution, donations and the license. It suits Android users who want a lightweight client with fewer tracking components.

microfeed is a lightweight content management system that runs on Cloudflare, aimed at technical individuals who want their own CMS without operating servers. You can publish audio, video, photos, documents, blog posts and external links to a feed that is available as a web page, RSS and JSON, so it also works as a podcast host.

Content can be managed in the built-in admin dashboard or by an AI agent through the official @microfeed/cli, which is why it describes itself as an agentic CMS. It is built on Cloudflare services including Workers, D1, R2, Queues and Zero Trust, according to the repository topics, and also functions as a headless CMS with an API. The code is TypeScript.

microfeed is licensed under AGPL-3.0 and deployed to your own Cloudflare account, so there is no separate vendor-hosted version. It suits creators, podcasters and developers who want a serverless, low-maintenance place to publish content.
