YouTube can go screw themselves, use Invidious or Piped to access YouTube. You can also combine this with LibRedirect to automatically redirect all YouTube links to Invidious or Piped. There are amazing mobile clients like LibreTube or NewPipe for Android and Yattee with this guide for iOS. All of these don't have ads or trackers.
Can vouch for Yattee on iOS, but every once in awhile I’ve had to grab new invidious instances as things happen
AFAIK if you use
https://r.yattee.stream/manifest-invidious-piped.json
, it automatically fetches the list of instances. Can't try it out right now since I switched away from iOS. On GrapheneOS I don't have any of these issues, I can simply sideload any app I want meaning I can actually use a proper YouTube client like LibreTube.
