Have you used it? It's like NewPipe except that it's better in almost every way. The ONLY downside is that it's just old-fashioned open source instead of FOSS.
It's not open source
Source available has never been the definition of open-source.
Incorrect. People have been calling random software open source since the 80s, because it's a very vague term. The new definition that you think is gospel wasn't invented until the OSI was formed in '98.
"open source" is a self explanatory phrase. The source code is open, therefore it's open source.
