NewPipe: The lightweight YouTube experience for Android

• NewPipe

  2,059 28,509 9.8 Java

  A libre lightweight streaming front-end for Android.

  

NewPipe does not see themselves as a project focused on blocking ads but as a privacy first project.

See their reasoning for rejecting the sponsor block PR here: https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/pull/3205

One can disagree with their decision but I can understand why they did this and since the PR author offers builds themselves, I don't understand why people are often angry towards the NewPipe maintainers.

One of the biggest strengths of Vanced over NewPipe when i tried them both was SponsorBlock [0]

Is there a similar feature available in Newpipe now?

If you drag'n'drop the URI in mpv [1], you can bypass the age restriction. Not convenient, but if you need it it's very useful.

I'm not the only person with this issue. The maintainer of Vanced said it'll likely never be fixed. [0]
