Hey,
thank you very much for developing the app. It has been great and I feel bad for requesting while being unable to significantly support.

The request:
Just now I have noticed video titles and even channel short descriptions being auto translated into my seeming location's official language.

I am aware YouTube has rolled out this feature for a couple of months.
This has not happened to me until today. (It was a Dutch server of ProtonVPN. Maybe the specific server was recognized or registered to be Dutch by YouTube?)

Are you able to fetch the language set in Pipepipe's setting, or possibly the untranslated/creator's local version?
YouTube's translation is barely usable for a foreigner of the VPN's location.

I guess there are underlying components from NewPipe or probably the API, so please excuse me asking here if not appropriate.
Please direct me to the responsible or sensible project otherwise. (Is it Piped?)

Thank you again.
