    I use NewPipe on my phone, anybody know of any PC equivalent if ad-blockers are getting blocked? Would it even work?

      NewPipe’s whole gimmick is the fact it fakes being a browser as far as YouTube is concerned, and the fact that until now Google wasn’t crazy enough to block visitors who aren’t logged in. If they’re willing to go that far there’s nothing any app can do, the ad either plays and then tells YouTube it played, or it doesn’t.
