I think at this point, what's needed is a wiki page comparing the various forks and options. I'm not a heavy *Tube user, and I can't keep track.

AFAICT, there are at least five active Tube front-end apps:

NewPipe
NewPipe x Sponsorblock
FreeTube (the only one that isn't a NP fork)
Tubular (how does this differ from MP x SB?)
PipePipe

Active, committed maintainers are one of the most important features of any such tool, as Google constantly works to sabotage alt front-ends and timely work-around updates are critical. But some sort of feature comparison matrix would be nice.
