LBRY
LBRY is a decentralised video and content sharing platform designed as an alternative to YouTube and other centralised streaming services. It uses blockchain technology to enable creators to publish, distribute and monetise content directly, and allows users to discover and view videos, music, podcasts and other digital media without relying on a single corporate authority. The platform emphasises creator ownership, censorship resistance, and community-driven content curation.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find definitive information about whether LBRY has a native Apple Silicon build. The project itself has faced operational changes in recent years, so the current status of the macOS desktop app is uncertain. If you rely on LBRY, your best next step is to check the official LBRY GitHub repository (github.com/lbryio/lbry-desktop) or contact the project maintainers directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build exists or is planned. This is particularly important because Apple will remove Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), meaning an Intel-only build will stop launching on that release. In the meantime, the web version of LBRY (via lbry.com) runs natively in any modern browser and provides most of the same functionality as the desktop app.
