I also can't stand the official YouTube client, not necessarily because it's so bad, but because ReVanced simply has so much more QoL features that I can't live without now.
I used to be on Newpipe in the old days. I liked it's simple no frills UI. Ironically, I can still choose my desired video quality(like 720p, since I am on mobile data) but on official Youtube app, I only have/had three options - Low, High and Auto. No way to set an exact video resolution system wide, it could only be done per video. These constraints make almost any third party client superior to the official thing Google is providing.
ReVanced also has the ability to remove the current BS YouTube video quality selector and restore the old resolution selector.
I've known about NewPipe for a long time but I've never really wanted to use it because of the vast amount of missing features. It might be alright for people who don't use YouTube very often or want to preserve their privacy at all costs but I can't use it.
Try pipepipe i feel like it has more features than the official client.
Tubular is great.
Newpipe is really superior in any way. I can honestly say I haven't visited YouTube.com in years, and definitely not used their app.
