I have been using UBlock and Firefox... I always get mad when I can't get UBlock for the YouTube app of my phone

I don't know what everyone else is using, but Revanced works perfectly for me despite the exaggerated claims of its demise.

I've been using this one for years, which filters out ads and sponsor segments:

Only for Android though. If you use iOS, switch to Android and you'll also get a really Firefox browser with ublock origin that blocks all the ads compared to that 30something% what every iOS browser does.

Newpipe is fucking great. Does what I want it to and doesn't do what I don't want it to. Favorite thing about it is the ability to easily download video or audio.

Yeah, the perks of the Android ecosystem. There's also a version for Android TV such as NVIDIA Shield. Again just works and filters out ads and sponsor segments.
