Unfortunately these alternatives suffers from YouTube keep breaking logins then block your IP if you are not signed in after like 3 videos.

There is no login option in NewPipe or PipePipe, you export your subscription from YouTube as a file and import them in any of these apps.

The point is YouTube blocks your IP and your video don't load if you don't log in

I know how this app works, I have used NewPipe for years already, this is a pretty recent problem.

When that happens to me, I close the app wait 5/10 minutes and it fixes itself.

Actually a longer wait than an ad would be.

At least some of the weaker twitch ad blocker does tell you it is skipping ads and you get an estimated time it will be back up again.

I just start up revanced and it just works.

I don't even log in. I subscribe to channels with pipepipe and call it good. I get no ads, notifications on new content, a cleanly organized interface, background play, and easy brightness controls. I personally need nothing else that logging in would provide.

I've found that, at least in my case, the block eventually goes away if I either just wait a while or restart my phone. I'm not smart enough to know why waiting might defeat this, though, so take what I say with a pillar of salt.
