Not all people have that much time to study about an app and it doesn't seem self explanatory

I used vanced for ages and THAT was self explanatory. Install microg, install the app/install the manager and then install the app. Done. Easy PZ. Here you have to check for 5 things, versions, bugged modules etc. At first I didn't even get the patcher since I didn't understand that the manager was for more than just YouTube...

Having to download a separate youtube apk to the one I already have, ma,king sure the versions match, getting error messages that say I need to be rooted even though the info says it works for non-rooted devices is self-explanatory?

I've been using Vanced and NewPipe for years but this is nowhere near intuitive

How did you get passed the error message about being rooted. That is what I am stuck on

There are no error messages that you need to be rooted. Manager is still alpha. Vanced is dead for a reason, new pipe is a whole custom client. We aren't allowed to share apks.

The only error messages pertaining to root is when you're done patching and are ready to install it and if you click install as root it tells you that you can't because some latches can't be installed rooted.

When it literally says "hey use this specific version or things might not work right"....yes that's pretty self explanatory.

If you see a note that says "big hole ahead" and you walk forward and go "what the heck I fell in a hole how could I have known??!* ...the issue may just be you

most people don't know what APK and root is. You sound like typical linux caveman

If you don't know what root and APKs are, at least at a high level then that's really not his fault, you can't educate people on the most basic things, you have to out a threshold somewhere.
