Not even speaking about all the ads in the default YouTube app without a subscription.
The app is basically useless in my opinion. It defaults to freaking 240p for every video. My phone is definitively not the problem, also not the Internet connection. Watching in Firefox on the same connection gives me normal expected quality.
This was better on some “feature phones” without touchscreen!!! YouTube app works and playback is in 720p / 1080p
No sponsor block in ff though?
It works with the addon enabled, just like desktop firefox. But right now it’s a bitch to manually install addons on the android version, so it’s a lot of work. I just use newpipe-sponserblock. Or also LibreTube is also nice while also having sponserblock built in.
TIL I’ll have to check on those other clients too, thanks p
how do you install addons on firefox android? I use iceraven now.
To install desktop add-ons you need to use nightly and create an add-on collection to sync. But sponsor block might have a mobile version that you can install from the settings section of the normal app.
