Hi guys. Basically what title says I have been using YouTube revanced since the beginning but now I’m looking for replacements so that I can get rid of the last Google app on my phone and microg all together but I really hate sensational thumbnails and titles on YouTube and kinda got used to DeArrowed thumbnails

Edit: link for the people who might not know what DeArrow is and might be interested

    I use Freetube on both PC and Android which has DeArrow. There are also a few forks of NewPipe that have it, BavePipe is one of them.

        It used to be called BraveNewPipe, yes. But the NewPipe folks want to trademark the name, so name got changed to BravePipe.

            Dang, apologies. Double checked. You are quite correct, my bad.

            Freetube on Android/PC does have it, however. But it does have the many other options that a NewPipe derivative has.

            Clipious is another one that does.

              You’re right. Clipious and FreeTube and LibreTube all have both of them but they don’t have a solution for “sign in to confirm you’re not a bot” error which comes up a lot when you use a VPN. only third party client that fixed this for me was grayjay with passing auth cookies (yes you have to sign in for the cookies unfortunately)
