does anyone know what happen to ytmdesktop?

I use YT Music and I was using this app 'ytmdesktop' to use the service on my desktop, recently it stop working so I went on the github searching for a new release...

It's gone, the github repo was either deleted or made private (you can see what it was on the wayback machine).

The project website is still up, but it links only to releases on github as well as a very outdated version on the snap store.

I mean it sucks, when it worked it did great, but I'm mainly worried about how sudden it was this removal, not even a notice on the website. Was this project secretly malicious, was exposed and I just missed the memo?

I just want to know what happen. 😕
