Since people talk a lot about Invidious lately, I would like to share this great desktop app for those who don't know it yet. It uses Invidious and lets you watch YouTube without ads. It even has SponsorBlock (you might need to enable it in settings though). You can add videos to favourites and see the history - all stored locally. It's Free Software.

I used to use Invidious on my desktop and NewPipe on my Android phone. Even tried FreeTube for a while. Everything worked great except managing subscriptions was a pain. Each device needed to be updated manually.

Then I discovered Piped and now use this exclusively. It's open-source, blocks ads, has SponsorBlock, and subscriptions. You can use it any browser and use the LibreTube Android client.

All the benefits of FreeTube, Invidious, Newpipe -- with the added benefit of subscription sync across all devices.
