      Use YouTube.com in firefox with u-block origin. Works well enough while not giving them ad revenue.

          That makes the privacy issues with YouTube worse. They can link your YouTube watch history with your identity

          Honestly agreed. I hate that we don’t have a good open alternative to YT, but as long as you can afford it buying premium seems like a decent alternative.

            @normalmighty @RagingRobot, well, you can use front-ends like CloudTube, Invidious instances, Piped or an Desktop client like FreeTube.
            You can also watch YouTube sandboxed searching the video with Andisearch and viewing it in the search results.

              Sure I could but I could also just pay $8 or whatever it is and the creators that I watch get a small portion of the money. I like them tracking the videos I watch so that I can look back and find the ones I liked.

                I’d love to subscribe to premium, but in my country they have disabled it. It is basically not possible to remove ads even when I want to pay, lmao. So, duck them, give me my vanced/revanced

              Jokes aside, revanced is cool AF. It has sponsorblock, dislikes and additional share buttons. Such an amazing app.

              Yes it is fucking cool and stuff, but iPhone users can’t use revanced or do they?

        I used to do that but I realized content creators don’t get paid if I do that so I subscribed to Premium.
