0.28.0
[!NOTE] This release adds a new option called "Full Local Mode", which allows you to use LibreTube completely independent of Piped and do all API requests directly to YouTube's servers, similar to NewPipe. This wouldn't be possible without the help of the NewPipe Extractor library, credits to its maintainers.
Thereby I also want to welcome @FineFindus to the LibreTube organization and thank him for contributing and helping with the development a lot recently, without his help many bugs would probably not have been spotted early enough before the release :)
