Youtube is apparently rolling out a new change where when you share a video link it will share you profile with whoever clicks it.

Video with info on it here(CW: Reactionary/fash stuff on screen at times): https://youtu.be/oFx46sqo8O0

Everyone should be aware of this especially when sharing to something like hexbear. It can break your anonymity without you even realizing.

CW to that video for all the hitlerite bullshit

Can someone explain why there's 100 different forks of NewPipe? Isn't NewPipe the OG? Is there something wrong with it?

The difference between PipePipe and NewPipe is mainly in the platforms aside from YouTube that they support: Niconico and Bilibili in PipePipe's case; and PeerTube, Soundcloud, Bandcamp, and Chaos Computer Club in NewPipe's case. PipePipe still lists those four NewPipe platforms as "legacy", though.
