Tubular fork of newpipe works on AndroidTV, don't know if newpipe itself does but last time I checked it didn't. So I use it on both tv and phone.

Is its UI adapted to Android TV? Or does it look like on mobile?

We are going back to the days of TV where half the time was spent watching ads!

I just pay for YouTube premium family. We all get add free YouTube. Plus music which we all use. It's a great value and no hastle. More money goes to creators this way as well.

This is the right answer. If more people subscribed... Well, it wouldn't have to be this way.

People allow their TV to connect to the interpipes? Tut tut, I thought y'all were better than that!

I don't get ads. I pay 🤷‍♂️.
