I've been following some apps for a while, at first there were a lot of apps that were working fine but later on more and more problems came to the surface.

It kinda seems like a lot of them are dying, I remember Vimusic, Innertune (that updates once in a few months right now), Spotube went down with problems from Spotify (But should come up again sooner or later), Rimusic went down, Harmony Music will become an offline player, SPMP (that was cool as well) isn't active as well and so on...

Other than personal reasons, it seems like Youtube is giving a lot of struggles on FOSS Apps (and probably some legal issues as well, just like Spotify on Spotube), what do you guys think?

Will it become impossible to use FOSS Apps with YT Music clients?
