So invidious isn’t working well at the moment, neither is piped. So I’m wondering what the best options are to watch YouTube right now?

    Vinegar (app)/vinegar extract (if you’re using adblockers) and safari. You can get rid of ads and support a small developer for like $2 I think.

      Big thanks, just bought this and already liking it. Haven’t tried casting yet but I hated how the cast button in the official app casts to the youtube app on my roku because the roku app shows an ABSURD amount of ads, way more than any other official youtube viewing option. I’m guessing this will allow me to use the normal iOS casting

      I use Adguard premium i think that’ll work come to think of it, it’s a shame really that YouTube had to go to such lengths to try and stop people from not paying them to rid their site of ads

        You can play youtube without ads via adguard, but you’ll have to do it everytime you watch a video (via options). Kind of a hassle, but it works. Firefox Focus also seems to be able to avoid ads most of the time.
