With an amazing help from a friend we got this solved/figured out, the problem is here: https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe-legacy/blob/0fd3f9b81e107907db22d458c36a8bb3da640af9/app/src/main/java/org/schabi/newpipelegacy/CheckForNewAppVersionTask.java#L58
Problem: The 'getCertificateSHA1Fingerprint()' doesn't exit/break on any of the catches, but continues executing code, therefore calling null variables. This gives the 'nullpointerexception'.
FIX:
Please use this one for this "legacy" git repo too and push a fix ASAP with the new version: https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/blob/db9f20a22f6093468fb79961a87812225109a258/app/src/main/java/org/schabi/newpipe/CheckForNewAppVersion.java#L60
Thanks in advance and please Leave this open for the time being... @friendlyanon @TobiGr

@friendlyanon when next release is planned!
In v20.2 Comments are not being loaded for a while, Main NewPipe has been already updated including Comments, YouTube Music search fix & also above fix also needs to included.
Honestly New v20 UI is a pain to use on legacy devices having performance issues with old hardware and other multiple issue like can't use background player separately from main player, can't use separate queues, Let alone bugs.:
Seprate background player was big plus NewPipe19 have that stood it apart, even better than those from other yt apps including YouTube official app. I feel it is retrograde step for Legacy repo to go that way{Unified}. @TobiGr what do you think?
"NewPipe Legacy" never worked for me - any version, from wherever - GitHub, F-Droid or a Modded one from 4PDA ! Here's the crash log captured with "Logcat Extreme Pro" (I don't know what "ACRA" is, is it a "firebase" analytics issue or whatever, or maybe the issue is in the build-in updates check):
