What does upstream think of this?

SB and RYD are only implemented here because upstream explicitly does not want their functionality in regular NewPipe.

In other words "Open an issue upstream and wait for them to refuse it before we move forward here" in case that wasn't clear.

commented

(Though given their previous opinions on external services, I doubt they'll want this one.)

I hope this would be implemented, the remade titles are great. No response in the upstream issue suggest that they won't implement this.

@Atemu SB and DeArrow use the same servers (ajayyy/SponsorBlockServer)
