    Ironic that Revanced, an app that claims to block YouTube ads, injects its own ads.

    Edit: I downloaded the wrong version.

      Maybe you have downloaded the wrong APK, there are some bad actors providing “pre built YouTube Revanced APKs”. Be sure to only download the Revanced Manager from https://revanced.app/ and the unpatched YT APK (version should match the recommended one in the manager) from a trusted source like apkpure etc.

      Does it actually? Genuinely want to know. I’ve been using Revanced since vanced stopped working and haven’t seen a single ad but maybe that’s because of other things I’m doing with my phone

        I have no idea what that person meant. The only thing that Revanced “injects” are info and updates of the app. The only thing I can think of is if they’ve installed it from a sketchy unofficial source.
