Android: YouTube Vanced (If you're ok with having an older version). Source: over 1 year ago
I tried downloading from youtubevanced.com, without even checking if it was the legit site or not. (foolish move I know). Source: almost 2 years ago
Is this the revanced version ,cause it seems that it works fine? https://youtubevanced.com/. Source: almost 2 years ago
There is an app called Youtube Vanced that gives you the benefits of premium without paying (so no ads, able to let youtube run while using other apps, able to lock the screen and have it still play) that I've been using for a year now. It's really nice. You have to get it from their website though, it's not on the app store because google doesn't like it lol. Source: almost 2 years ago
A revolutionary tactic is using YouTube vanced instead of YouTube premium https://youtubevanced.com/. Source: almost 2 years ago
Minitube is pretty great, and uses MPV (and therefore yt-dlp) behind the scenes. It has filters that are really neat, and is very minimalistic. I personally use it, too, to avoid distracting myself and to actively search for everything I consume. [1] https://flavio.tordini.org/minitube. - Source: Hacker News / 24 days ago
I can recommend "minitube" [1]. It's super minimalistic, and requires you to actively search for things to find them. No ads, no feeds, no short videos, nothing - just playlists for search terms. Uses yt-dlp and mpv behind the scenes, so it's using less than 5% CPU on my small Intel NUC machine, too. I can't stress enough how it is soooo much better in terms of what type of content I consume now.... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago
In regards to alternative Youtube clients. Not sure if it fits your requirements but I've used MiniTube which is pretty decent: https://flavio.tordini.org/minitube. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
Minitube is what I use, not open source though. https://flavio.tordini.org/minitube. Source: over 3 years ago
Or the native cross-plattform opensource Minitube from https://flavio.tordini.org/minitube . Is already available on most systems through the package manager. - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago
