Android Ad Blocker
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
Highly recommended. Fdroid is one way to install, you can also download an .apk from the new pipe website.
Second new pipe. Works great
Thank you !!
One more vote for NewPipe! Been using it for years.
I like revanced
The manager doesn't really eork for me for some reason

Try the other Methods in the ReVanced Extended documentation.
Using Revancify is a good option, or you can use the RVX-Builder in a computer.

In my case, the patching work but installation failed. My solution is to save the generated apk and install it using a file manager instead of directly from revanced manager.
Firefox + ublock origin = zero youtube ads. Fuck the app.
YouTube revanced is awesome but theres a bit more to it than installing a single apk

Never use a proprietary app for what should be done in a browser.
Words of wisdom
I don't have a good ad blocker for you other than AdAway. It won't block YouTube ads on an unrooted phone, but it can on a rooted one. You can try in-browser mobile YouTube with Firefox + uBlock, but I would suggest switching away from the native YouTube app and getting NewPipe with SponsorBlock from F-Droid.

EDIT: Corrected link to current NewPipe.

Aside from Revanced, you can't really block ads on the Youtube app. You can use your browser or Newpipe/Libretube as an alternative, but that's it.
Firefox for Android with uBlock. I get the YouTube front end (live subscriptions, recommended home feed, livestreams etc.) but no ads.
Alternatively, you can use the official YouTube site with Mull browser or Firefox with the ublock origin extension installed. But NewPipe offers a better experience since you can download videos etc.
Newpipe can also continue to play videoes with the screen turned off. The interface is really nice.

Firefox + uBlock is my suggestion too, it makes mobile browsing bearable.
Sign up for YT premium using a vpn to a cheap country. I pay $2 a month. Once you sign up you can cancel the vpn and it keeps the same price
Why would you pay at all though?
Because the family premium tier gets you and designated family ad free YouTube when using Chromecast, and YouTube Music. Worth it for me. We're all cheapskates here, just some of us are less cheap!
I always forget about using it as a family account.
You may pass.
I would never pay YT premium until they implement Sponsorblock, which they won't do.
NewPipe or LibreTube.
Use LibreTube.
For YouTube I think the only options are revanced/ revanced extended or Firefox Nightly with a whole bunch of extensions.
Isn't ublock Origin sufficient? It is at least on desktop browsers.
Yes, ublock is enough on mobile
Revanced extended is great Sadly the devs discontinued it due to unacceptable community (i'm one of the admins of revanced extended)

Browser with extensions is great and all but Youtube Revanced still way better option it support gesture google account (that google can't track you) picture in picture and it's easier on your device's ram/cpu, for in app ads you can try Lucky Patcher to remove ads as long as the app is not using account to buy premium features LP should work on most app
i suggest to use a open source front end (such as newpipe). and use adayaw (a hosts based ad blocker) for the generic ads

Use " dns.adguard.com " for your dns.
I haven't had an ad since making the switch.
I'd recommend NextDNS, although I haven't tried the AdGuard DNS. You can choose from many blocklists, add stuff to Denylist or Allowlist (which I had to do for AliExpresss app to work properly), check logs to see what was blocked or allowed, add Rewrites which was useful for lemmy.fmhy.ml and fmhy.ml, and there's a bunch of other protection options.
You can also test it out for free WITHOUT SIGNUP for 7 days. If you clear your cookies you can get another 7 days over and over without signup.
