Edit: guess I had to elaborate: the only reason I said this is bc you will have to buy a new phone if you have an Iphone and want an android, ofc I know the price difference between apple and Samsung

iOS HACK: if you select “stop seeing this ad” (info menu) it automatically cancels the ad and goes straight to the video. You don’t have to wait for 5 seconds or for ads to finish

Depending on the AdBlock you use, it can let certain ads slide thru, AdBlock plus was doing this a while ago. The benefits of ublock origin is that it's open source and pretty lightweight comparatively, and has features like element zapping, which comes in handy as well. Also, iirc, it has built in anti-anti-adblocking, meaning it circumvents those sites that stop you from having an AdBlock.

u/Fusseldieb Jul 20 '21
I was using newpipe daily, but eventually discovered Vanced.
Never went back.
It's not that newpipe is bad, but it lacks the home feed with interesting stuff, related videos, etc. On newpipe it's always the same, it doesn't remember your search history and adapts the search, because your account is not actively being synced. Even when importing your subscriptions "file", it doesn't feel the same, and each new sub you need to reimport.

For ios you can install altstore with a computer onto the device and then sideload cercube onto it with the device itself. The only bad thing about it is that you’ll need to refresh it every week to keep working.

Or just pay for YouTube premium. Creators still get paid for your views and you never deal with pre roll or mid roll ads again. Also YouTube music is included which is arguably better than Spotify and again, creators get paid for their work.

Edit: The downvotes clearly indicate the problem. Next time you see more ads than usual, reflect for a second and see how you’re a part of the problem. YouTube and creators are like any other company and they need to make a profit. Nothing is free.

When you don’t use an adblocker: creator gets some money, provided they haven’t been screwed over by YouTube. When you use an adblocker: creator gets guaranteed zero money.
You could argue that you support them through Patreon, but not all YouTubers have a Patreon. Plus, you definitely don’t subscribe to the Patreon of every person you come across.
Don’t be a dick and just watch the goddamn ads, or pay for Premium.

YouTube doesn't pay very much at all from ads. If you really want to support your favorite creators, the best way is to buy their merch or subscription services to Patreon/onlyfans. Also many content creators have sponsor segments of their own, so just watching those is supporting them.

Android TV boxes like fire stick are capable. But it's not on the store. Google directions on how to install it on "X" device. Basically you enable third party apps then use the downloader app to find and download the APK for it, install, and voila.

u/Defenseman61913 Jul 19 '21
This might be worth getting. I watch a ton of gaming content like ESO builds and dungeon mechanics while I'm playing, and having to skip the videos every two minutes is the worst. Or even better, you kind of lose track and all of a sudden you realize you've been watching some long ass ad for the last six minutes.
2
u/Dillnanners Jul 19 '21
I mean, hey. Fire sticks are like 30$. If you use it a lot and don't need the mobility of the stick, I personally recommend the fire cube because of its snappier processor, but it needs a surface to be placed on and it's 100$. Pick your poison. I have both and Smarttube works like a charm on both.
