You mean vanced or revanced? For me latest revanced version works fine? What are the issues?
I mean vanced. I was too lazy to set up revanced and instead tried out NewPipe. I hate how I don't have my really optimized suggested page on NewPipe but I get around that by using vanced to browse and then opening the video in NewPipe via the share button. A nice plus of NewPipe however is how my subscriptions now really are just the channels I really care about and not the 1000 random ones I've subbed to over the last few years.
Try revanced and that additional package recommended by them that allows it to use google account - I forgot the name - micro g perhaps? It works quite well for me at least. There are some discrepancies between homepage at home pc and phone, but it's better than nothing or ads. Process was quite simple, download youtube apk, install revanced patcher and apply patch to the app.
Sounds very similar to the vanced installation. I might do this and keep NewPipe for subscribing to the really high quality channels and if google actually goes through with banning accounts that block adds I won't be nearly as impacted :D
Yep, it's Micro G.
Revanced MicroG to be specific. MicroG is the free reimplementation of some if the Google APIs.
If "building" is not your jam, you can try https://github.com/j-hc/revanced-magisk-module/releases, which does builds that is ready to install.
They've got revanced for twitter and tiktok? Not like I'm going to use those trash platforms but that's still pretty cool. Thank you for the link!
