For those who use YouTube a lot I HIGHLY recommend playing for YouTube Red. A much easier way of getting rid of the ads if you can afford $10/mth.

- andai 9y agoA few years ago they forbid apps on the Play Store from having background playback for YouTube, in anticipation of the release of YouTube Red, which would offer it as a paid feature. Still waiting.
- vonuebelgarten 9y agoWait no more, just install F-Droid and NewPipe ( https://f-droid.org/packages/org.schabi.newpipe/ https://f-droid.org/packages/org.schabi.newpipe/ ). Bonus feature: it does not use the API so Youtube can not track what do you watch.
- andai 9y agoOh neat, thank you!
- majewsky 9y agoI would like to so much. Not for the comfort features (I got all of these already with mpv and youtube-dl), but for the feeling of not ripping them off when blocking ads, and in part also for the original programming (esp. Mind Field). But, as the sibling says, Youtube Red is limited to a few countries. From what I've heard, it's not in Germany because they cannot figure out licensing with the music industry. I find this utterly stupid, because music videos is precisely the part that does not interest me at all about Red.
- vilmosi 9y agoI wish I could.
