Depending on your feeling towards the ethics of it:

YouTube Vanced (3rd party YouTube app) with its integrated sponsorblock actually makes the app pleasant to use, it also unlocks some of the premium only features like background play.

No root required, although you're buggered if you run iOS presumably

Nice app, but I had to uninstall it after a week due to frankly ludicrous battery usage. My phone (pixel 3) battery typically lasts for 2-3 days between full charges, but with YouTube Vanced installed I was running out of battery by 8pm. I want to like this app, but the battery drain was insane.

Is using ubo/sponsorblock unethical? I have been blocking ads for so long I cannot bear to see ads in any shape or form. Our attention is abused.
