For a while, I've had problems with a patched yt app. Been going on for probably months at this point, but even with the latest ReVanced patches I still end up with, if lucky, video plays for 10 seconds before infinite loading. Makes me have to use the PipePipe (NewPipe fork) app more than I want, but at least I get ad free videos.

I'd use a privacy respecting frontend, but sometimes I like to comment and I have yet to find one that allows me to login and comment on videos.

I'm not interested in commenting, but I do want to keep track of my history (across multiple devices). I wish there were a privacy-respecting solution that could do that.

By Louis Rossman's startup "Futo". I have a lot of respect for that dude from his right-to-repair activism, but despite that it's just a good privacy-respecting video app and worth paying for, IMO.
