So I saw the discussion on github () that goes over rewriting NewPipe with Material Design 3, Kotlin, Jetpack Compose and maybe Flutter So I thought ima give up my personal opinion on it.

I think rewriting NewPipe would be a great idea cuz it would be able to compete with downloaders like Seal, YTDLnis and with other new youtube client alternatives again. NewPipe still has a really old ui that doesnt fit in the modern time, has a few bugs, lacks on cool features that Seal, YTDLnis and other clients have it also lacks on frequent updates because of big bugs that the developers are focusing on. If NewPipe would rewrite it would probably fix most of the problems and people will start using NewPipe again more frequent then other alternatives the only disadvantages would probably be even longer waiting for updates and people that complain about the design that they aren't familiar with.

What are your opinions on NewPipe trying this step?
