Rebrand the fork
Its not ideal to keep using poly's branding, when his fork of the app is not anymore maintained. It rather would cause confusion among users on whether they should report me or poly

NewPipe x SponsorBlock x Return YouTube Dislike

A fork of NewPipe with SponsorBlock and Return YouTube Dislike functionality.

01 02

The implementation is still a bit basic but it generally works pretty well.

How can I get this?

Builds will be uploaded in the Releases section. Please download the APK from the newest release and install it on your device.

Why isn't this in upstream NewPipe?

The developer team behind the official NewPipe decided that they do not want to include these kinds of functionality in their app. See https://newpipe.schabi.org/blog/pinned/newpipe-and-online-advertising/, https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/pull/3205, and https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/issues/7469 for more information and discussion.

We obviously disagree but we respect their decision and continue to offer SponsorBlock and Return YouTube Dislike in NewPipe via this fork.

This fork, attempts to keep the work by polymorphicshade updated with latest NewPipe releases, with almost no changes to the SponsorBlock code, since it is feature-complete.

Bugs

Please do not report bugs encountered while using this fork to the upstream developers. Either try to reproduce the bug in vanilla NewPipe and then report it (preferred) or create a bug report in polymorphicshade's repo.
