I don’t have a VPN.

Been using PipePipe for awhile now and love it. Unfortunately, recently it has not been able to load playlists 9/10 times. Very frustrating. Hopefully it gets a patch soon.

I tried revanced but it always fails when trying to patch the apk. I couldn’t figure it out.

You skipped the part where, upon purchasing YouTube, Google used their infinitely deep pockets to deliberately run all other video hosting services, and there were several, out of business and create a monopoly. I’m not going to question my morals over blocking ads from a company that itself is morally bankrupt.

I’m using NewPipe now after Vanced finally quit working for me about a month ago and it’s great and sooo lightweight but I’m definitely missing some features from vanced. However, I’d rather kill myself than pay for YouTube premium and NewPipe is free so this is not me complaining.

I’m using InnerTune, another FOSS option, in place of Vanced music and again, works great just missing some features.

Aloy is the most generic, boring character in recent video game history, and the Horizon games are just generic open world action games with a predictable story. Probably the most over hyped, overrated games of the last ten years.
