firefox and ublock, which works for me. From what I have read this is happening to chrome users.

Or Newpipe

or Revanced

or Freetube.

Or SmartTube on android TV

You don't have to jailbreak an apple device anymore, side loading works?

You don’t have to jailbreak, you just have to use AltStore and “renew” the app every 7 days. It’s a bit of a pain in the ass in all honesty but it’s still better than watching ads.

I do sometimes find stuff I wanna watch when browsing through YouTube though, and the uYou app is really good. Even allows me to stream up to 4K and screen off etc.

Yattee is so much slower than uYOU. You can also go to any instance url on safari browser and add it to the homescreen and use inviduous as a webapp. But neither one works as good as uYOU when I'm out on the road.

Also:

If you have access to an Apple dev account this is avoidable.

Even more of a pain for me because I am on Linux so have to spin up my Windows 11 VM just to use altstore.
