yt-dlp is the successor. On droid there are several beautiful front ends for yt-dlp so you don't need a terminal emulator

Can't they block the likes of Freetube, Newpipe, Revanced?

These clients use the same set of APIs as the YouTube official client. Unlike the Twitter and Reddit clients which used APIs for 3rd-party.

Newpipe doesn't use youtube official API. It does webpage parsing afaik

uYou can't be used on non-jailbroken devices, right?

No you can. You need to choose from AltStore, TrollStore and Sideloadly depending on what works for you, then sideload the uYou+ IPA (or the IPA of any app)

Thanks, looking into AltStore now!
