Pipepipe stopped downloading audio or video when I was using it a couple of years back.

I switched over to NewPipe as it was better maintained and worked well.

Since past few months, NewPipe is not automatically showing latest YT videos, but it opens the video if I type in the video's source url. Downloads are working fine though, which is what I mainly use it for.

Will try Pipepipe again next weekend if it fares better.

Google is trying to suppress all these FOSS alternatives to its ads-overloaded apps.
