Open Source & Community-Driven:
• LockedIn is 100% free and open-source. The code is public for anyone to review.
• Why open-source? YouTube's layout changes constantly. This means a new update can sometimes temporarily break a feature for some users.
• You can help! Because LockedIn is open-source, we can adapt together. You are encouraged to report bugs or even contribute fixes on our GitHub to keep the extension strong for everyone.
