Oh OK my bad, that was news to me. I stopped using it a couple of years ago when Firefox got the functionality built in, and it wasn’t advertised as an ad blocker back then.
It’s on F-Droid. I personally haven’t used it in a long time because you couldn’t sign in to your account. Not sure if that’s changed. I’m currently using revanced which is great.
As the other poster said, it’s on F-Droid. It’s mostly a Youtube frontend, although it accesses SoundCloud and PeerTube too. And more importantly, it doesn’t download advertisements from YT, so you don’t even need an ad blocker when using it.
The ad blockers in question were AdGuard and Ghostery, acc. to the article.
uBlock Origin is still working fine for me. And NewPipe in the cell phone.
Ghostery isn’t even an ad blocker, it’s just to prevent tracking.
Ghostery does work as an ad blocker too, and advertises (eh) itself as such.
Plus, for corporate nowadays, tracking and advertisement are two steps of the same process.

Where do you get NewPipe and is it good
