mpv🤷 Don’t have to see ads anymore. The day I can’t watch it without seeing ads, is the day I stop using youtube.On the phone: NewPipe.
Everytime I open youtube, I struggle to find something to watch. Most of the videos I watch are linked to from third-party sites.
To add on that: There is (an actively developed NewPipe fork)[https://github.com/polymorphicshade/NewPipe] that extends the functionality with SponsorBlock. LibreTube (another FLOSS app) also has this, Piped support and even DeArrow Support (vs cringe thumbnails.)
New pipe on the phone works pretty well. Better than YouTube ads. Although you can’t directly watch shorts without searching for them (as far as I know). I just watch those on Firefox with adblock.
Would recommend though.
Didn’t know that mpv can do that. Will use that instead of browser.
It can play individual videos or playlists with the help of
yt-dlporyoutube-dl(I think the former is more active than the latter).
