Running NewPipe for android to get ad free youtube, have been reasonably satisfied. Is revanced comparable, or good enought to bother switching?

Assuming you don't mind microG, with revanced you can sign in and have access to more of the bells and whistles. Otherwise, newpipe is great, and it's more than YouTube. It handles bandcamo and other services too

ReVanced is a modded YouTube (and others) app. IE normal YouTube but you fuck with it locally to skirt what got the original Vanced guys. Adblock, OLED black theme same old thing Vanced provided. I've used NewPipe very little but I'd summerise a comparison as ReVanced has better user experience (thanks to Google making the app) and you can sign in/get notifications ect
