basically Newpipe but only source available, not really free software or open source, so they are restricting your freedoms.
Just keep using Newpipe instead.
It is open source but you can't publish modified code (this is to ensure there will be no malicious forks like there was with newpipe)
plus you missed the entire point:
It's an app that allows you to watch the same creators across many platforms
The term "open source" generally refers to the definition by the Open Source Initiative.
https://opensource.org/osd/
Not allowing publishing of modified source code is in violation with the criteria of open source.
FLOSS or die
Have you used it? It's like NewPipe except that it's better in almost every way. The ONLY downside is that it's just old-fashioned open source instead of FOSS.
It's not open source
