Youtube, it just has way more content than any libre platform

There why we use ReVanced YouTube and YouTube ad block extensions.

ReVanced? I used to use Vanced, but I guess it was shut down. I've been looking for an alternative (but clearly not very hard).

ReVanced is pretty much exactly same thing as Vanced, except it works still and is kept updated.

ReVanced is a godsend. Just please find it on GitHub, not on google where the first five links are scams. https://github.com/ReVanced The process of getting ReVanced is a little bit more complicated that Vanced.

  • download ReVanced Manager from GitHub
  • go to Patcher > select application > YouTube
  • you will see recommended version
  • find that exact version on ApkMirror
  • download it, it have to be the APK version, not the SplitAPK one.
  • go to ReVanced Manager > patcher > select app > from storage > select your APK from ApkMirror
  • select patches you want (I highly recommend reading what they do and deciding if you want it)
  • click patch and wait for it to patch. On my phone, I have to leave the phone on with the ReVanced manager open, otherwise the patching process resets. It may take few minutes.
  • install the app and open it, go to settings, some patches have to be configured/turned on.
  • if you want to login with google, you have to install Vanced MicroG (If you used Vanced, you should have it already installed)
