Just tapped on a BandCamp link in a text message (1), and a popup offered to open it in PipePipe, either in the main app or a background player. I chose background player and it's working fine. This is awesome.

In theory this capability has been available for a while in @newpipe (of which PP is a fork), but I don't remember ever getting it to work.

I get the impression PipePipe started out as a fork of NewPipe, but the two have diverged significantly since the fork. I've used variants of NewPipe to watch YouTub videos for years, with very few hassles. It's been by far the most reliable of the privacy-respecting YouTube front-ends. So I'm curious to check out PipePipe.
