As an avid NewPipe user I like that it's an approximately identical tool with more functionality!
It seems like a fork where (I wish) a plugin could (ideally) be in NewPipe. It may also be a nice nod to the original devs to change the default color scheme of the fork so nobody gets confused as to who forked from who.
Overall very cool work! I hope they continue to have success and make progress.
The fork was originally created because upstream NewPipe elected not to include sponsor block functionality.
Why?
Because sponsoring doesn't infringe on privacy, is usually controlled by the channel, and is often relevant.
