No ads.

No (direct) YouTube tracking.

No need to sign in for 18+ / age restricted video.

Within the past few days, YouTube's mobile website has changed the player, for me, removing:

- Removing double tap left/right to skip forward/back within the video.

- Removing mute audio control.

- Adding skip forward/back in playlist. A feature I never use (YT's suggestions suck, I curate my own playlist.)

For now, Invidious retains the old player controls, allowing me to mute annoying-ass video and skip forward/back to repeat / bypass interesting / annoying bits.
