Vanced alternative for an ancient phone with JB Android 4.2.2?
I haven't tried SkyTube but looking at their GitHub it seems the video player it relies on is the cause of the issue and is also needing minimum 5.0: https://github.com/SkyTubeTeam/SkyTube/issues/1062

Can anyone fix the old youtube app?
Legacy requires Android 4.0 minimum, it was branched out to Legacy due to crashes and development burden getting the main one to work properly. You can find it here.

Missing device(s) to "Cast to"
Interesting. I can recommend Skytube extra for casting without ads. Smarttubenext seems to be another good option if you have the newest chromecast with google tv or an android tv box (which I don't)

Faktas, kad telefonai mūsų klauso, bet pasidalinkit labiausiai wtf momentais, kai pradeda reklamuoti tai, apie ką prieš tai kalbėjai su kuo nors. Mes va su drauge buvom mieste, bandėm surasti tualetą kur nors, po kelių valandų facebook'e jau tokias reklamas meta lol

I have installed Lineage OS 13 on my OP 6T, then added Magisk to be able to launch as root. It was initially for AdAway to run as super user. Revolut complained and refused to start.
