Description

Description:

I'm curious if there are any ongoing discussions or plans to incorporate extraction of the YouTube homepage into NewPipeExtractor. Given the limitations of the current YouTubeTrendingExtractor, which may not cater to individual user preferences, would integrating homepage extraction improve user satisfaction by offering a more personalized content selection?
