I’ve certainly had the feeling that things aren’t improving as quickly anymore. I guess, it’s a matter of the IT field not being as young anymore.
We’ve hit some boundaries of diminishing returns, for example:
Many markets are now saturated. Most people have a phone, they don’t need a second one. Heck, the youngest generation often only has a phone, and no PC/laptop. As a result, investors are less willing to bring in money.
I feel like that’s why the IT industry is so horny for market changes, like VR, blockchain, COVID, LLMs etc… As soon as a new opportunity arises, there’s potential for an unsaturated market. What if everyone rushes to buy a new “AI PC”, whatever the fuck that even means…?
Well, and finally, because everyone and their mum now spends a large chunk of their lives online, this isn’t the World Wide West anymore. Suddenly, you’ve got to fulfill regulations, like the GDPR, and you have to be equipped against security attacks. Well, unless you find one of those new markets, of course, then you can rob everyone blind of their copyright and later claim you didn’t think regulations would apply.
I know of LibreTube and SkyTube.
I believe, both of those make use of components from NewPipe to interact with YouTube.
If you’re looking for something that makes use of the official YouTube API, so that you can login with your user account, Google killed those before they released YouTube Red/Premium.
I find that question difficult.
I’d say the best modding experience is when there’s a documented API. You kind of don’t want to look at the code behind that documented API, because you don’t want to rely on behaviour that can change at any point.
So, if there is a modding API and it has all the features that you need for the mod you’re looking to create, then I’d say it doesn’t make a difference.
If there is no modding API, then as others already explained, you can fork said open-source project, i.e. you don’t even need to glue a mod at the side of it, you just change the game itself to work like you want it. In this scenario, open-source makes it significantly easier to modify a game.
