I'm using this all the time myself. There is no login to YouTube required and it supports adding subscriptions and doing everything important you can do on YouTube.

And the best part is no ads whatsoever.

yeah I agree! My wife would hear bitchin me if we would watch something on her iphone as i would constantly point out the fucking ads.. I use in on my Fedora but sometimes (like once a month) I have a problem with the invidous instances. I wish there would be something similar to use on android, bu fortunately with Firefox& SponsorBlock it seems to block most of them...

as i would constantly point out the fucking ads.

Why would you do this?

Also, there are apps for invidious on Android.

Because they seem to be insufficiently annoyed by them. So I'm helping. By pointing out the invasive garbage being spewed at us.

At least that's how it seems to me.
