I tried it but for me, local-first is an absolute non-negotiable. I did load it up to test it but another thing that put me off is it doesn’t have a dark mode/theme. Even worse, in their FAQ about it, they said they likely won’t have dark mode for a long time as it’s not a priority!?? It would literally take me all of 5 minutes to add a dark theme. Like wtf are they talking about? It made me worried about the rest of it as to me that clearly signifies that the developers are incompetent.
If you have an Android TV, just download an app called “SmartTube”. I used to be subscribed to YT Premium but then I found that app and cancelled my membership. It automatically blocks all ads and also has SponsorBlock implemented which auto-skips sponsored segments, etc. It’s super useful. Then on my phone I use YT Revanced which is essentially a modded version of the YT app which does practically the same thing as SmartTube.
