    Not sure what part of a free YT+ frontend that doesn’t require permissions or an account you don’t trust, but the reason is they don’t want people to fork it freely and spread a version with malware, like happened to NewPipe.

      I understand the reasoning, but I disagree that it’s an effective solution, or if it was, that it’d be worth what you’re giving up.
