          In fact, the word “pagan” appears to be slightly derogatory, along the lines of “hillbilly” or “redneck.”

          The word “Celt” does not carry that kind of connotation, at least not in the word by itself.

            That’s news to me. Spent a lot of time in the pagan community when I was young and stupid. Never heard it ever being regarded as a derogatory term. Most pagans I knew wore it as a badge of honour.

            Being in the UK, I associate Celtic culture as being primarily Scottish, Irish or Welsh. Although the term “Celt” does date much further back than modern Celtic traditions.

              The Celts originally occupied the Iberian peninsula, Gaul, Germania, Ireland, and Britain. What we know of the Celts comes primarily from the Romans, since the Celts didn’t have a written language. What little bits of writing remain from the Celts was near the early Roman Empire, and in vulgar Latin.

              Of course, the Romans ultimately conquered a lot of those areas, into Britain up to about Hadrian’s Wall. I believe they semi-conquered Cornwall and Wales, to the extent that they “ruled” those areas, but still left them generally to their own devices. Only Wales really retained its relative independence, as is evidenced by the fact that Welsh still exists, while Cornish is barely holding on after having become extinct and then revived.

              The reason I compared “pagan” to “hillbilly” and “redneck” is because plenty of people wear those names with pride, too, even while many other people continue to use them in derogatory ways.

            The word “Celt” is largely meaningless. There were no such specific societal group as “Celts”.

            “Celts” refers to speakers of similar (though not the same) languages within a celtic language group which includes Gauls (Who became Germans), Celtiberians, who became Portuguese, the Gaels, who became the English and Irish, etc… etc…

            Saying that “Celts” are a society is like saying Peru, Argentina, Mexico, etc… are all one single people. (pro tip…they’re not)

            So no, “celt” isn’t derogatory, and it certainly isn’t a synonym for “druid”.

      Ah, I came here to ask that question… If this is finally the version with log-in… It isn’t.

      We have to be patient then. They’ve promised to add it. And Framasoft usually follows up on their promises. But looking at the commit log on the project page, they dont seem to be actively working on the Android app. It’s mostly noise, translations and dependency updates there. Nothing that’d indicate someone is working on adding features. So it could take some time.

      But you’re not the only person waiting for this to be added.

    NewPipe has been there for a long while, with the ability to watch Peertube videos.

    However, with its strict no account policy, you aren’t able to leave comments, for example. So, nice to have!
