On my mobile device NewPipe works but PipePipe does not.

F-Droid doesn’t have the latest updates

Just checked, the latest PipePipe version in F-Droid is 5.1.1

On GitHub, the latest release is also 5.1.1

Just downloaded it and it works, thanks!


I just read up a bit and realized that PipePipe is a fork of NewPipe. In other words: NewPipe is the original 🤯

PipePipe's GitHub page says

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

It's ironic that PipePipe was forked to adress quick fixes, and not it appears to not work at all (for me) while the original NewPipe does work.

 

I used to use PipePipe but I constantly have issues with it, and it entirely stopped working months ago, so I'm looking for an alternative.


I'm new to dbz0, please forgive me if !piracy is not the right community for this topic, and kindly direct me to a more appropriate place. Thanks 🌼
