About this fork

Due to differences in development philosophy, I forked NewPipe in early 2022 and began independent development based on it.

This means that PipePipe neither receives updates from NewPipe nor pushes updates to NewPipe. They have become two separate projects. Issues that occur in NewPipe don't necessarily happen in PipePipe, and changes made in NewPipe may not be adopted by PipePipe. In contrast, forks like Tubular track the latest version of NewPipe and develop based on it.

Making a hard fork allows us to effectively address issues with quick fixes and maintain frequent feature updates.
