If I was single it would be easier but ya know family 🤷‍♂️

I use FreeTube on my desktop and Newpipe on my GrapheneOS Pixel 7, I don’t see any ads or graphic overlays. The family uses AppleTV and the YouTube app is a horrible experience with the amount of ads, even for a 3 minute video. Future project is to look into Pihole or something to block ads at the router level.

From what I’ve read only Apple cables will work with limitations put on regular usb-c cable. Typical Apple nonsense.
