Do you guys have any recommendations for more privacy respecting YouTube frontend for iOS? YouTube Lite Plus has been good so far but I’m not sure how effective that no tracking thing is. I’ve also seen on Reddit Yattee and BluePlayer. Anything else? I can sideload it if it’s not avaliable in the App Store. It would be nice if it also had features like SponsorBlock.

Orion Browser on iOS/iPadOS is compatible with (some, not all) Firefox/Chrome addons. Add SponsorBlock for YouTube, uBlock Origin and Video Background Play Fix from addons.mozilla.org and use the YouTube website as is?
Used to run my own Invidious instance I used with Yattee but it got banned and then for some reason ate shit and died completely.
Reminder that Orion is not open source, but it is made by a reputable company Kagi. They will make it open source soon though.
It’s great to know that they are working better now, last time I tried almost none was functionnal and it was quite a pain to install / uninstall / switch source (Firefox / Chrome version) in the hopes of it finally working. I’ll have a look, since then I’ve been using Brave + piHole and it was more or less decent.
Damn, this Orion I’m hearing about seems really promising
