Use piped
So many pipes! https://youtu.be/8g2KKGgK-0w?si=CmYDo3NBZdxgaBNR
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
🎼 Pipe it up. Pipe it up. 🎶
They still have no app. Viewing anything on that site through your mobile browser sucks ass.
Grayjay
no.
Grayjay is proprietary. Use Newpipe, which is what Piped’s extractor is based on.
Wait, it is? Thanks for the heads up !

Grayjay is open source.
Nope, the source code is available but it is proprietary software because the license forbids distributing modified versions, among other things
Shit, why source available then ? What are they trying to accomplish ?
Piped is based on NewPipe’s extractor.
If you want an app it’s available on f-droid or with sponsor block on Izzy’s repo.NewPipe for android
Tried that, the interface wasn’t any better. Also, you couldn’t log into an account and get recommendations. I use Revanced extended.
Libretube
Just tried it. Tried playing several videos, and the app just crashed every time. Plus, again, there is no youtube account sign in and a bad UI.
Not being identifiable is kinda the point of Piped, so an official YT login will never be a thing, I’d assume
Thank God someone finally said something! There was probably a Lemmy user somewhere who hadn’t heard of it yet.
