Cool! Keeping up with platform changes is a challenge for projects like this. I think to be successful beyond initial popularity you need an active community that can do this together.

Following maintenance of alternative YouTube clients as well as searx-ng is illustrative.

Not to discourage but be prepared. Best of luck!
