    I use qutebrowser, and even with userscripts and DNS blocking I can’t for sure reliably block all of google’s spyware and fingerprinting (and that’s not even mentioning how bloated the default webclient is). Also google looks like it’s pushing out server-side ads like twitch does, and using the browser client is playing in their ballpark.

        Invidious playback is unreliable in my experience, and 3rd party clients have the advantage of selecting from multiple invidious hosts, and falling back if one doesn’t work.
