I tried to import my subscription from YouTube to the app but I got rate limited due to the large amount of channels. Is there a way around it?

You'll probably want to report that to the devs. It is in alpha so there is a lot to add, fix, and tweak.

I did report it just making sure I haven't miss anything. Pretty excited about the app

Also happened to me.

Also now the rate limit applied for a while to newpipe as well. Kind of unfortunate that until they fix it it's not a very useful app.
