SkyTube Extra

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

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.

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)

SkyTube Extra (version 45): A simple and feature-rich YouTube player

Invidious, it's privacy front-end to youtube (open-source ofc). Check which instance fits you: https://github.com/iv-org/documentation/blob/master/Invidious-Instances.md

In some countries that are not modern, developed liberal democracies and don't have guaranteed civil liberties, the right of free speech, and privacy laws, government authorities might investigate and prosecute users connecting to the types of sites you mentioned and other types of sites if the government has outlawed or blocked them e.g., BBC News, SkyNews, YouTube, etc., which is exactly why users in such countries use Tor to connect to clearnet and legitimate onion sites — to circumvent blocking and evade detection and prosecution (note: some users of Tor in any type of country predictably might choose an Invidious Instance to watch online videos.)

Use Tor Browser to preserve your online anonymity and privacy and to evade tracking by Facebook, Google, and other legal or illegal trackers. Invidious example: in list, connect to any link, e.g, this link. In the search bar, enter Queen of England and press . Take you pick of videos about Queen of England across multiple pages. No tracking. No ads. Privacy.

Hi. You might want to check Invidious’ FAQ. It answers your question (spoiler: no). Next time, you might want to refer to a project's documentation before asking Reddit to do this for you. ;)
