+1 for FreeTube. It's so customizable. Besides the ad blocking and sponsor blocking by default, there are SO MANY features and interface improvements. Never going back.
The only problem I have with it is I can't like videos. As much as people push it, I still want to do it for the people I watch.
But that's not worth dealing with Youtube's BS
I'll be honest I didn't even know you could log in to YouTube with it. I assumed most people would be using it to actively not participate. By using it you're already taking ad revenue away and skipping sponsored segments.
