    NewPipe is a decent Youtube client that...

    I just did a search in the Play store and NewPipe wasn't there. Did you get this elsewhere?

    I got NewPipe on my Android phone from the F-Droid repository.

    https://f-droid.org/

    I think F-Droid is a must these days :-P

    i kind of wish they'd just bring back banner ads to websites. video ads are so annoying. i know youtube needs to get paid by showing ads but i don't want to sit through long ads.

    Hello MRO!

    i kind of wish they'd just bring back banner ads to websites. video ads
    are so annoying. i know youtube needs to get paid by showing ads but i don't want to sit through long ads.

    Most of those have a "Skip" after a few seconds when they
    start.

    What concerns me is that the marketing industry is bubbling up and its burst will destroy many services people is used to.

    Meanwhile use adblockers like everybody else, and let the sheep fund your services by watching ads.

    yeah i do but these sites need the money to operate. I just wish there was something other than annoying ads to keep them afloat.

    Yes, I get it and just about everything from F-Droid (fdroid.org).
    They also have their own F-Droid repo you can put into the F-Droid app.
