I hope this project gets more contributors to help make it as good or better than Newpipe. Written in Dart using Flutter can allow it to be compiled for Android, iOS and desktop

it used to be "see source, but no touch source" when it came out, and now it's "see source, touch source, no sell source". Not exactly proprietary, not free as in freedom. Kinda gray zone here, pun intended

I knew of Grayjay but did not know it was open source now. A lot of the app is written in Kotlin which is promising for cross platform

"See source, no touch source" is called source-available.

"touch source, no sell source" is a new phenomenom and there are multiple names to describe this. I personally like "fair-source" though.
