ad blocker

I can see an argument for an alternative FE, but I'll never agree that an ad blocker is "wrong." It's my choice what to install on my machine, and it's YouTube's choice how they choose to deliver their content.

YouTube controls their API (as in, what a third party FE uses), I control what I do with what I receive from the API. They're different things.

I do agree that ReVanced doesn't have any "rights" here, but it's on YouTube to block their requests, it shouldn't be something they sue over.

All of that being said, I'm actively looking to eliminate YouTube from my life. Nebula, Odysee, and others have enough content that I think I can replace most of my usage of YT. The main thing left is music, but I don't listen to music all that often anyway.

I actually use funkwhale now for music. It’s really decent so far. A little buggy though, but it should iron out
