This. Unlike ReVanced that requires a bunch of hacks* to work, Newpipe is easy to simply download and install.
Has all the features premium youtube has, and unlike Vanced, it uses Youtube's API to serve the content, which means Google can't shut them down (They tried, and lost the case).
Because Newpipe simply doesn't use the advertisement API, you'll never* see ads in Newpipe.
HOWEVER. Please keep in mind Newpipe is currently in spaghetti code form, and that means fixing a bug causes more to appear. They're working on a complete rewrite, aka Newpipe 2, but it'll take a while. In the meantime, you may encounter some issues if you're on the road for example.
I've had Newpipe shit itself almost always while biking, due to constant mobile connection tower changes. For those errors you need to open the app up again, and press play. It unfortunately doesn't respond to bluetooth play/stop signals in that state.
Have you tried Revanced Manager? I'm not rooted and can pretty much just download the proper version from apkmirror, select it from storage, and run the patch and then install it.
Its v18. 25.40 with revanced extended now
