Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
https://piped.video/watch?v=5DePDzfyWkw
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

I'm intrigued, but this seems like the perfect spot to put malware.
Edit: Ok, so this comment I've replied to is a link to a video, not a link to download an app or extension like I thought it was.
-
Its open
sourcecode and Louis Rossman has a big following. If it ever gets anything malicious put in it the world will know quickly.-
It isn't open source, the licence violates point six of the open source definition
-
it's open source, just not Open Source
-
It is open source. And it is free as in beer. It's not free as in speech though. But I understand his reasons and they are justifiable IMO given the android ecosystem.
-
From my limited understanding, open source means a very specific thing. So this is just "source available".
-
Yeah "Open source" can be many things and the definition is often misused. I would say it's FOSS without being FLOSS. As you say "source available".

Are we talking about Grayjay from the video or the link in the comment I replied to?
-
-
The license chosen expressly allows him to release the dogs on anyone who modifies the app for the purposes of malware distribution
-
The app is open source. Rossman even tells you to check yourself
-
That would help if I had any idea what I'm doing with code.
I just know I see a comment with a link to something different from what's in the video posted above, and I'm not sure about clicking that link in the comment.
-
-
it's open source. feel free to check and compile it yourself.
In fact, Louis adresses the malware problem in the video
-
I'm not asking about the video, it looks legit. I'm wondering about the comment with a link that I replied to.
