Huh. My solution (for years now) has been to kill the YouTube ap entirely and watch videos on Firefox with uBlock Origin.

I may have to see if Revanced is a better experience.

Used to do that but recently switched over to ReVanced because Firefox pip would just show the corner of the webpage sometimes, or when I go to fullscreen the app would close, so I'd have to go back on Firefox again and fullscreen twice because the first time I fullscreen it doesn't auto-rotate
