I'm using this all the time myself. There is no login to YouTube required and it supports adding subscriptions and doing everything important you can do on YouTube.

And the best part is no ads whatsoever.

apparently freetube automatically uses a new invidious instance every time it starts up.

It seems to be at random, and many of the instances don't work correctly. You're better off finding one that does, and setting it as default.
