@duke_of_germany @timmy Yeah, I tend to use NewPipe on Android to watch YouTube videos these days.
There's no ads, you don't have to log in with a Google account, and instead of algorithmic feed it defaults to the channels you follow.
Also, you can watch PeerTube videos through the same app.
It's available on the F-Droid app store: https://f-droid.org/en/
