Don't forget that NewPipe × SponsorBlock is a fork that adds SponsorBlock. Also there's ReVanced to make YouTube bearable while still having access to your curated feed.
I find it easy to browse with the YouTube app, but when I find a video, tap share then Newpipe Sponsorblock.
Still get the curated feed that way.
If you can find a copy, the original Vanced app still works great too. I never switched from it when the project died.
ReVanced is so much better. It can even block Reddit ads.
Vanced blocks YT ads and has sponsor block.
I no longer use Reddit, but Boost swaps reddits ads for banner ads that Pihole blocks. (boost also still works perfectly as long as your account has been a mod at some point, even just a creating a quick test sub and leaving it.)
With a self-hosted vpn keeping my phone behind Pihole, The only place I ever see ads is the Twitch app, but I really don't watch that much so 🤷. I spend far more time on yt.
Been waiting till I need a new phone to explore ReVanced (as I don't have an apk for Vanced, just the currently installed version). Just haven't had any need for it yet.
