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.

YouTube recently rolled out changes that break these third party apps causing a 503 error. Other apps have patched this issue.

Yeah I've removed it already and know all the antics YouTube has been doing as I use Smarttube on my Firetv.

But yeah not very impressed with Freetube in comparison to even a browser and the more I read about it not being able to view age restricted and other content it's not for me especially with the constant freezes.
