 BraveNewPipe just pushed an update!

I tested it and it works.  You can get it right now via Obtainium!

Beginner Q&A:
Q: What are you talking about?
A:  Youtube broke a lot of privacy frontend apps with an update.  This is the fix

Q: What is Obtainium?
A: An android app you can get via F-Droid that lets you install any other app via the developer’s Github, so you avoid having to wait for slow groups like F-Droid

Q: How do I do it?
A: First get Obtainium via F-Droid, then copy-paste the Github link:
https://github.com/bravenewpipe/NewPipe 
 Any thoughts why the new one wont show in obtanium for me? 
 May be you need to add it. 
 I hope this is meant to be a joke cuz obviously it needs to be there. I use obtanium so safe to assume I know how to use obtanium 
 I'm sorry, my friend. I thought everything has a begging. Actually 
 All good bro. It was me being an idiot actually, had some other git url for it that this new one wasnt in. Simple fix.  
 Great to know you fixed it. 

Actually I started using Obtainium an hour ago. 

Thank you so much for your acceptance of novices like me. Thank you. 🫡 
 Not a novice but far from an expert. Just a guy who knows  a few things about a few things😎🤘🍻 
 Human error. Never mind 
 Do you expect the fix/workaround to be shipped to the official TeamNewpiped repo any time soon?
Would save some time transferring settings and subs. 
 FYI in newpipe you can export settings and stuff to a zip file, and then restore it in newpipe forks. I just did it, ezpz. 
 yeah they said on github today the fix is in the works 
 I was thinking I was crazy. My newpipe won't work anymore.  
 What happened actually? 
 I figured YouTube had made some change that broke newpipe. This post confirmed it. Brave newpipe is working though so this post was very helpful.  
 It was very helpful to me too. I have at least using Obtainium and Brave New Pipe thereby. 
 What about Tubular? (It's NewPipe for with SponsorSkiping features)

Seams broken as well but are they working on a fix? 
 not sure sorry 
 Wow, a faster updating, less buggy fork of newpipe with more host options? How have I not heard of this? I've already replaced newpipe and restored my settings.  
 Google rolled 
 In case you're scratching your head, wondering why NewPipe stopped working:
