I just made a new acc and the problem is still there, i guess they flag you down instantly as soon as you open ReVanced. Problem with different apps is that most of them dont allow you to log-in to Google acc, so you dont have your subscriptions, playlists, recommends page. I dont want to browse youtube anonymously, i dont care about my data being stolen by north korean CIA

I have an old Samsung Galaxy (2016) with Android 7.1 and all the recent Youtube ReVanced apps require Android 8+. The latest version you can use on Android 6+ is 17.36.37

My problem is videos stop loading after like a minute of playing, it gets stuck infinitely. I tried installing Vanced, which doesnt load videos at all anymore. Older versions of ReVanced, doesnt work. Other apps like NewPipe, but i dont like that they dont allow you to log-in to Google account. Also i heard that Youtube flags certain accounts like that, so you have to make a new one, but i dont want to abandon my 10 year old acc and build up my recommended page from scratch.

Is there anyone with old Androids? What is the solution here?

I pay like 7$/month for unlimited mobile data, but they do datacap and use very scetchy schemes aswell. I live in a countryside and we have 4G, but they offer you something called "pre-5G" for extra 4$. I tried it last month and obviously didn't feel much difference since it's the same 4G with a "higher priority, P2W". But this month i disabled it and now my speeds are so bad during the day. Lots of websites can be laggy and slow from time to time, they're literally forcing you to enable that thing back, even tho it wasn't as bad before i enabled it.

Speed-wise it can easily get 1.2-1.8 MB/s on torrents, so it's not that bad. But watching Twitch or Youtube can sometimes be annoying because connection can be pretty unstable during daylight, at night everything is perfect. And it's not because there's a lot of other people using mobile data in my area, i'm probably the only one who uses my certain provider here. They do deliberately "shape" the speed down for some reason and lots of people on russian forums complain about it.

Thanks for detailed explanation. Im too dumb for some of it, but i think i mostly understood.
So if i use my mobile network directly through a usd cable to my phone (not a USB 4G modem/router stick) the only way for me to use open ports is VPN? But i doubt it's really worth it for me, since i never use VPN despite living in Russia. GoodbyeDPI does all the work for blocked domains

A dumb question about torrenting and open ports (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

I've been using mobile internet for last few years and whenever i would try to seed it'd be like 0.2 kb/s at best. I know that it's due to my dynamic IP (or whatever it's called) and i have closed ports.

Then i saw some people say that opening your ports makes your connection better/faster because you're able to connect not only to people with open ports, but closed ones aswell. Does it make sense download-speed-wise? Because how could i take traffic from someone who's unable to seed due to closed ports?
