Maybe they won’t kill it within 3 years because they have plans to license this technology to other companies (language apps?).

I used a seedbox some time ago to download a specific big torrent (at the time). I payed using Paypal, as I don’t consider seedboxes a low-hanging-fruit for rightsholders to persecute at the moment.
There’s too much redundant data on these services, so if they takedown one user’s data, there’s still lots of the same torrented data on other user’s. I don’t think rightsholders are willing to play wack-a-mole for such infractions.
They’d rather invest their resources on more centralized file sharing, such as big public torrent sites and cyberlockers.
Maybe this comparison is an exaggeration, as the Steam Deck GPU is also widely compared to a GTX 1050 in horsepower, which in turn seems substantially more powerful than a SD 8 Gen 2.
I’m sorry but I don’t remember typing this LostRedditors stuff. I’m just as confused as you are. (some mod edited my comment?)
And it was never my intention being combative about the NewPipe competitors. I just think Vanced and ReVanced are in a completely different category of apps. As they potentially may step on some DMCA rule, they’re far more vulnerable of being taken out by Google. And most hobbyst devs just abandon their projects at the first sign of a DMCA or Cease and Desist.
In general, movie piracy is more targeted by rightsholders, so if OP is not interested in this category he’s pretty safe in a country the doesn’t care.

Certainly it is illegal to distribute Vanced because it’s a modified version of Youtube official app, which is copyrighted.
Re-vanced may have found a workaround so that users modify the app themselves, but Google may claim DMCA’s anti-circunvention rule is being breached, and sue the relevant parties if they wanted to.
If the criteria of comparison is being open source and long-lived, no other YouTuber player app matches NewPipe. There’s Vanced/ReVanced, but they’re on another category and border the illegal.
If you’re asking because you’re tired of NewPipe’s UI, I read that the developers are planning to revamp it to get rid of some technological debt and streamline further development.
“Rip” implies re-enconding. Web-DL is the exact video stream as it is transmited, without any further re-encondings by the release group. Unless I’m wrong…?
If there’s some re-encoding, would the file still be considerd “WEB-DL” at this point?
The first Far Cry wasn’t developed by Ubisoft like the rest of the franchise. Does anyone know what prompted the franchise changing hands?
I read somewhere that ECM compresses by removing the error-correction sectors from an ISO file.
It’s already proven that discs can technically work without them. Dreamcast GD-ROMs are basically the practical application of this concept, with the goal of expanding CD-ROM storage from 700MB to 1GB.
That’s why the size reduction is cumulative if the user apply ECM and then 7zip compression afterwards. That’s because ECM is actually a trimming method rather than an actual compression scheme in the traditional sense.
How did Huawei get it’s hands on a Snapdragon chip? If I recall correctly, they’re under US trade sanctions.
