These big tech companies are so ridiculous doing things like this. Everyone must sit and stare at the ads right? :)
I guess everyone knows about Newpipe, otherwise im taking the chance to talk about it here…
Vinegar Classic Safari extension still working on mobile.
I'm confused because for the Android app this has been blocked for years, it's one of the main reason I use RVX.
That’s why I use YouTube ReVanced on Android which still works great
Does ReVanced still work? Google broke it at one point so I switched to RVX.
No idea what the Wordpipe is, but uBlock makes sure that I see absolutely zero ads on YouTube.
Its for Android, an app you can install to replace the YouTube app there that throw ads in your face every few minutes.

So far it’s still working for me with Firefox and the “Video Background Play Fix” extension.
