Mobile Ad Blocker Will No Longer Stop YouTube's Ads
For me, the less-complicated client called "DVD" is more reliable for downloading than the client called "Newpipe"; the later stops working intermittently. YMMV.
(Neither are as reliable as using own custom command line programs on desktop, or mobile via Termux. If Google makes a change I can fix/workaround immediately. No waiting for app developers.)
For me, Newpipe works well as a Soundlcoud client.
From the Kotlin source for "dvd":
Video downloader app powered by yt-dlp (formerly youtube-dl).
Features
Download video/audio from 1000+ sites supported by yt-dlp.
Run custom yt-dlp commands.
Update yt-dlp version from settings.
Share link via other apps.

If yt-dlp works, you can also use Celluloid to watch videos from Youtube — choose Open Location and enter the YouTube video or playlist page.

Give yt-dlp a try: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp
The only ads are the ones the creators insert into the videos themselves.

I just use a free desktop client called Freetube instead ( https://freetubeapp.io ). Don't even have to login or create a profile, and there's a ton of UI customization options built in. Voila -- no more Google shenanigans.
