Comment on YouTube isn't happy you're using ad blockers — and it's doing something about it

  Revanced works flawlessly on android and gives you the native app feeling

    I got this play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bimilyo… is that the one?

      I guess not, it’s just some ripoff

      No, that’s a scam. ReVanced will never be in the Play Store, you have to patch it yourself. There’s instructions on the ReVanced subreddit and it’s easy. And don’t download premade versions either

  You can use:

  Revanced

  • github.com/ReVanced/revanced-manager
  • revanced.app

  This patches the official YouTube app with a lot of different options including removing those ads.

  NewPipe

  • github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe
  • newpipe.net
  • f-droid.org/packages/org.schabi.newpipe/

  This scrapes the website, and is my preferred YouTube app. You cannot log into an account though, which isn’t an issue for me. You can also import/export your subscriptions.

  LibreTube

  • github.com/libre-tube/LibreTube
  • f-droid.org/en/packages/com.github.libretube/

  This uses Piped API

  Do you use an iOS device? I have an app that works very well and is on the app store, no side loading

    What’s stopping you from posting the name? I have an iPad that I used to use for YouTube in the kitchen but now it’s only Netflix and nebula.

      In general, posting publicly about these kinds of workarounds is a bad idea. It’d be great to share them with the world, but the sooner Youtube finds out about them, the sooner they break. Keeping the recommendations to in-person or at least in private channels helps to maintain the obscurity that allows them to exist.

      There’s zero chance that Google / YouTube don’t already know about the Vinegar Safari extension for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS.

    Could I ask more about it? My wife is an iOS user.

    Would love to know the name if you could DM me

  Have you tried ReVanced? Works great for me.
