The #YouTube client for Android is now a huge clusterfuck of advertising and over-exposed features that you'll rarely if ever use. Not only is there advertising EVERYFUCKINGWHERE, the advertised products are heavily skewed towards privacy nightmares like #TikTok and suspicious fad retailers like #Temu, and the constantly recurring VisibleTitsAIFemalesAdvertisement for "dating" services.

It's depressing as hell to watch.

Therefore: Use LibreTube and NewPipe unless you actively need to Like or Comment on a video. Do not depend on Google/Alphabet products for anything. Seek out alternatives.

Alphabet/Google/YouTube doesn't give a shit about their human "customers".

That's a fair proposition. 👍🏼

I've been using ReVanced, which replaced Vanced.
