Libretube uses piped and Clipious uses Invidious both of which are not directly Youtube. All of those are also Foss. Grayjay is not Foss and thus should be avoided. You also can use Newpipe as it supports few of other services but I never understood the need for a everything app.
First off, it’s open source, and secondly, it’s more important that users and content are not tied to a centralized figure to give them all the power of discrimination and censorship. Get the fuck off your high horse.
It is source available not open source or libre. The license strips away the 4 software freedoms. It is just as “open source” as the Windows XP source code leak.
Literally all of those depend on YouTube as a host. Grayjay is like an RSS reader for any hosts. The point is to get away from centralized control.

Never understood the point of an RSS reader that points you towards self hosted things?
It isn’t a RSS reader in the least
Well not for RSS it isn’t, but the function of it is the same. Follow people, not platforms.
Stick to your effectively proprietary app then
