It is right that the GetColor method of ColorThief requires a BitmapDecoder parameter. But BitmapDecode is not created by the way you are trying. BitmapDecoder can be created by IRandomAccessStream according to CreateAsync() method, cannot be created directly by a Uri. So you need a RandomAccessStream object firstly. This can be done by creating a RandomAccessStreamReference by RandomAccessStreamReference.CreateFromUri(Uri), and then open and read it. A complete demo by using the ColorThief is as follows you can reference:

Uri imageUri = new Uri("https://yt3.ggpht.com/-cYK4gMKhvV0/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/8znlvBw-Wos/s100-c-k-no-mo-rj-c0xffffff/photo.jpg");
RandomAccessStreamReference random = RandomAccessStreamReference.CreateFromUri(imageUri);
using (IRandomAccessStream stream = await random.OpenReadAsync())   
{
    //Create a decoder for the image
    var decoder = await BitmapDecoder.CreateAsync(stream);
    var colorThief = new ColorThief();
    var color = await colorThief.GetColor(decoder);       
}
