    After they killed YouTube Vanced, I switched to New Pipe and never looked back

      For those wondering, ReVanced launcher short after that and is even better than Vanced.

      Long time NewPipe user here, have you tried FreeTube?

        No, I’ve never even heard of this. Is it better than NewPipe?

          It is faster, doesn’t crash and you can read the answers to all comments. It lacks some features of NewPipe like the display dimming via swipe, but has some UI advantages (sharing without timestamp, you pain in the ass!).
