I’m sure they are working on a youtube messaging app behind the scenes.

    If they hadn’t gotten so obnoxious with ads that it was impossible to use YouTube without blocking them, I wouldn’t have used the vanced/revanced stuff in the first place.

    They find a way to prevent using those, I’m out totally, including on the few devices I didn’t care about playing the ads because it was just background noise.

    Oh well

      I even had Youtube premium for a bit. Revanced is nice just to dial back some of the bells and whistles that isn’t relevant to the video platform. The official app feels clunky.

        Id really like to use revanced while paying for premium if it means it doesn’t get borked every x months and I don’t risk getting banned, kind of like Spotify tolerates 3rd party clients as long as they are premium accounts

      Wouldn’t mind the ads if they weren’t deliberately twice as loud as the music! That’s just fucking rude
