SponsorBlock FTW!
also also, firefox on android supports extensions. never go anywhere without ublock origin and sponsorblock.
If you're on android I'd recommend viewing youtube videos through newpipe as it strips out everything except for the stream. Only downside is that it doesn't have replacement functionality for sponsorblock.
I've tried newpipe, but it won't work if my phone is connected to wifi, no idea why.
No need for the clumsy browser experience. Just download ReVanced.
Newpipe > revanced IMO. Newpipe also supports a few other media streaming services outside of youtube, and when stuff breaks due to google interference they usually have a fix out within a few days.
The problem with NewPipe is that it breaks the YouTube experience. ReVanced lets you use your YouTube account to get all the normal YouTube functionality such as liking and commenting, viewing your subscriptions (including syncing if you make a change) and, most importantly, syncing playlists such as the Watch Later playlist.
I've only had ReVanced break once since I started using it, way back when Vanced first died. So I don't consider the "stuff breaks" element to be especially relevant.
Yeah that's a fair point. I use newpipe specifically to get away from the youtube experience and keep only the videos. Newpipe does let you create local playlists and subscriptions that live only in the app, which I do utilize a bit.
I've gotten reVanced a couple times. It usually works for a week or two before something breaks.
How exactly does it break for you? I use vanced and then revances constantly since the day one of its existence, and don't remember it breaking once.
Huh, weird. I think I've only had to reinstall it once since Vanced died and I switched to ReVanced.
Huh. I update my revanced YouTube app every 6-9 months
Do you have microg integration set up? Usually the root cause of issues when something there is broken from my experience, assuming you have stable from the official revanced manager.
I've used it for couple years and it has never broken so I don't understand what you are doing with it
or just get tubular from f-droid, which has sponsorblock built in
I'm sure that's better, but my way is doable for normies (my friends) and the extremely lazy (myself).
Unofficial Freetube for Android is an option as well.
