How does revanced work? How does it protect me from ads?
I don’t use revanced, but freetube. I guess it’s similar.
It lets you play video without ads for free. It has a ui close enough to YouTube, which is nice.
Also you watch video anonymously. So it won’t propose video based on what you have watched before. Which is nice or not… you decide.
Ah gotcha, similar to newpipe on android
It's an android only apk which you sideload and strips all adds from YouTube content.
