YouTube’s ad blocker crackdown now includes third-party apps
YouTube’s ad blocking battle continues.
Sounds like trouble for Newpipe, Sponsorblock, etc...

War... War never changes.
New pipe still working for me.
freetube is also good here
I use both depending on device and they're both great. FreeTube just got a great update too (especially if you're running multiple profiles).
If they're saying third party apps are fine as long as they show ads, I could see third-party apps displaying ads. And then having option to cover the add playback with a black screen, or with other content, but the default behavior would be to show the ad.
