This is the way! I’m using it too with a piped instance. Also configured the RSS feed to a Slack channel with yattee://watch?v={videoId} which works awesome. When I press the link, when a new video is posted, it opens in Yattee. Basically I have a privacy focused YouTube with no ads and with subscriptions.
This is what I very much tried. Is the best option out there, but unfortunately the “discover” of new content is really lacking compared to YouTube’s algorithm.
use sideloadly https://sideloadly.io/ and download the ipa from here: https://github.com/arichorn/uYouPlusExtra once you set it up all you need is to literally open sideloadly once a week on your pc/mac and hit refresh while the iphone/ipad is connected to the same wifi. apple doesnt let you add apps for longer than week unless you pay to be a developer so a 30second job to refresh the app and ur done.

There are ways to sideload apps on iOS but I think you need a Macbook to do so, I had a iPhone once because I got it for free and I will never touch one of those ever again!
Interesting, seems like there is a Linux app now too, well still not a fan of externak devices just to sideload but luckily the EU will improve that with the Digital markets act I guess
Been using VideoLite a lot, there’s a single ad that plays as you open it, and then you’re set. Optionally you can pay £1.59 every three months and skip that initial ad.
I know this is /c/piracy but I feel YT Premium has its benefits. You get the music service as well. Spotify is better, yes, but YT Music is good enough and the family can have an ad free YouTube experience. My 5 y/o can watch cartoons without getting ads in his face.
