Plyr deprecated soon?

[stl3]

Will there be any plans to move to vidstack from plyr since it will no longer be updated? https://github.com/sampotts/plyr/issues/2737 I also see that it can cast to Chromecast which is useful (plyr can probably do that too but I've never tried looking into it).

There aren't any plans to update plyr since it works good enough as-is. Unless browsers start breaking it or there's some kind of security risk with it (which I doubt since it's mostly just UI), I don't see any reason to update it (we've just been using the 2021 version of plyr without updating it). I chose plyr because it was the leanest option I could find (<10k LoC) and didn't require any frameworks, and vidstack looks like it wants to go to the moon, which isn't really what youtube-local is about.

Good points. I myself prefer the leaner route so long as it's functional. I guess so long as it's still working it's not a problem.
