    Use Invidious opposed to YouTube directly, your traffic is proxied and masked with other people who use the same Invidious instance as you.

    Not perfect as YouTube has a tendency to add more and more restrictions on their APi, but if you can find yourself an instance that keeps itself up to date then should experience minimal issues.

    Can also import your YouTube subscriptions.

      I am saddly not in a place where invidious makes sense for me yet. I use Unwatched on my ipad and iphone, when it comes time to update my phone I will be changing the operating system when I have the money I will be replacing my ipad I will be finding something with preferably Debian with touch but I would be fine with ubuntu touch!

      I have started to use Waterfox and uBlock on a pi5 on my TV to block youtube ads, I am hopefully getting a hand me down mac mini that I will install Debian on in a few weeks, as it is x86 I will be able to do more like sponser block. I have tried invidious before, but it did not work for me maybe I will try it again soon.
