    How do the 3rd party clients for youtube work? Can they still circumvent the adblock-blockers or where are the “positioned” inside youtube’s code? Sorry for the weird terminology, I’m no programmer.

      Re vanced mods the normal app with a premium override.

      I had to patch mine as the blocking mentioned in the article was kicking in after about 20 seconds. The video would just stop and sit loading.

      Revanced works on Android devices, and Doesn’t need root. Follow the guide to do it.

      YouTube ReVanced still works. They patch the app to not play the ads.

      The way it works is you install the normal YouTube app, install the ReVanced patcher and it patches and reinstalls the app.
