<h2>NewPipe e.V. hires contributor Profpatsch for NewPipe development</h2>
<h3>03.12.2024</h3>
</header>
<p>
We have an exciting announcement to share, made possible by your amazing financial support!
</p>
<p>
Proudly, NewPipe e.V. is investing your donations into
what is most meaningful to the NewPipe project: paid development time.
2024-12-03 22:31:51 +01:00
After we temporarily hired Schabi this summer from July through September
2024-12-02 23:58:56 +01:00
(as reported on
<a href="https://newpipe.net/blog/pinned/announcement/schabi-contract/">the NewPipe website</a>)
and extended his contract
2024-12-03 22:31:51 +01:00
until October, Schabi can no longer offer us his services due to taking on a full-time
2024-12-02 23:58:56 +01:00
job. He already made some impressive progress on rewriting and improving the core player component
of the app, dubbed
<a href="https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPlayer">NewPlayer</a>; now, to ensure his
work not to become stale, somebody
needed to take over where he left off.
</p>
<p>
Thus, the e.V. reached out to members of NewPipe's contributor community
in search of new independent contractors that would take our offer of a flexible opportunity to
work on NewPipe.
With a gap of less than a month, the e.V. was now able
to hire Profpatsch, TeamNewPipe member and independent software developer, who says,
"I'm happy to
2024-12-03 22:31:51 +01:00
continue Schabi's work on NewPlayer,
2024-12-02 23:58:56 +01:00
helping out with reviewing and the refactor."</p>
<p>
We hope you are as glad about this news as we are.
NewPipe e.V. has committed to working with Profpatsch for the timespan of three months,
with the perspective of a longer-term arrangement.
2024-12-03 22:31:51 +01:00
For this, we continue to rely on your donations to help drive NewPipe forward; please consider
2024-12-02 23:58:56 +01:00
a <a href="../donate.html">donation</a>
such that we can keep funding this and further contracts for the benefit of the project.
</p>
<p>
Yours Sincerely,<br/>
the NewPipe e.V. board.
