PeerTube And Android 4.4
I had an old version ( 0.7 if I remember ) of PeerTube wich worked with my Android 4.4 Kit Kat But not after upgrade I cant find a version for Android 4.4 in F-Droid, neither here : https://github.com/sschueller/peertube-android/releases
What can i do ?

All versions ever released are on the release page. I don't think the app ever worked on android 4.4 as the first commit was already minSdkVersion 24. I did make some changes a while back to make it work on Android 5. Maybe you had another peertube app? There is at least one other that I have seen in the playstore.
I will take a look if I can make it work in 4.4 but I can not make any guarantees.
I can assure you that was working. A version downloaded on F-Droid something like one year ago Thank you for the work
I just want to +1 getting your app working on Android 4.4. There are plenty of people still using old devices running that version (myself included), and it's great to be able to use native apps from F-Droid as an alternative to the browser.
In case anyone has any ideas: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55007532/netcipher-and-retrofit-on-android-4-4
The major issue is that older android versions can't deal with TLS 1.2 and certain ciphers which almost all Peertube servers are configured for. The workaround is to use Google Play Services but I am looking for an alternate solution which doesn't require it.
