I've heard of piped due to the piped-link bot, but I am curious about others.

I'm not quite sure what you mean? Louis calls it open-source during the entire "This is open source, but it is NOT free!" segment. But what he describes as open-source is not open-source, but source-available.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

"This is open source, but it is NOT free!" segment

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Good bot (and it's also open source, the actual kind)

The reasoning that he doesn't want it to be used like newpipe is really optimistic on his part. People break license all the time on much larger applications.
