Newpipe is a website scrapper. It is fully open source as well. It does not have Chromecast support.

Revanced is a patcher for the official YouTube app, which is why it has chromecast support

Then why does anyone use Newpipe?

Because some people like using FOSS apps. And don’t want all the trackers from the YouTube app.
