Does this also apply to revanced?

Youtube tried blocking revanced a few months ago and the team just pushed an update to fix it. Youtube is gonna try to block it but its gonna be a sepparete thing from blocking alblockers in a browser.

Oh gosh, that's unfortunate.

Good thing I've been using NewPipe! I'm reading the post for other alternatives, but feel free to suggest some to me directly, if you'd like.

I have used freetube on windows. I assume adblock is in browser context here, so freetube should skip the browser completely.

Revanced too, if you are on Android. IOS has one, but I don't know the project name.
