I am one of those suckers (:sigh) who paid for Youtube since it bundled Youtube Music with it. However, today I used the latter’s Revanced version and it was so much customizable. Right from removing menu items to the stupid cast button Google has forced on us; it seems a billion dollar company can’t compete with these folks who make their apps so much more serviceable.
I don’t wish to go too much into the official Youtube client which too is tacked with things like Remix button and what not.
Yeah, on pc yt-dlp is absolutely the best option, If I remember right, there’s even a way of downloading the high bitrate versions of videos spoofing iOS or whatever, but maybe this was using a fork of it
And on android, I used to rock youtube mate
