MODERATORS
NewPipe is a killer app I would say, with nearly Youtube Red level functionality in something that's free and OSS. A bit afield from privacy, but you do get to access youtube stuff without logging in.
From what I understand, NewPipe has been abandoned and someone else forked it to Tubular which includes SponsorBlock.
That's completely incorrect. From NewPipe's Github:
polymorphicshade "stopped" development on their fork of NewPipe, which included SponsorBlock (because NewPipe did not want to include it) and started working on their rewrite of their own fork and/or NewPipe, which is now Tubular.
Very good to know. After following your Github link, I found my way to the blog post that it looks like you are quoting:

You mean the quote block where I said it was undergoing a large rewrite and don't submit any feature PRs? That was actually the first two sentences of the README.md on the TeamNewPipe GitHub link I gave lol.
Newpipe is definitely not abandoned. :) But always nice to learn of an alternative
