Youtube/Peertube hybrid client?
I've recently decided I don't want to browse youtube via the whole 'recommended' frontpage anymore, I want to switch to a purely subscription-based feed. This means I'll need to use a third party frontend/client, as the official sub box is algorithmic.
However, I've always been interested in peertube and love to try to use it whenever I can, but unfortunately, the content just isn't there yet to use it exclusively. There already exists clients that let you use either service, but that's not quite what I'm after.
What I'm looking for is a client with a sub feed that takes from both services. I can subscribe to a channel on youtube, and another on peertube, and my sub feed will display both together. Does such a thing exist?

I used Newpipe for a while on Android, but recently I discovered LibreTube, which is now my favorite Youtube client on Android. It looks a bit more modern and it actually shows you child comments, instead of just the parent comments. I still use Newpipe as a backup, though.
On desktop, I either use FreeTube, MPV (Pairs great together with Qutebrowser or ytfzf) or simply Firefox with extensions.
Also, I only just noticed that Lemmy actually loads in newly posted comments live in the thread, without the need to reload the page. Very nice!
I'm thinking of switching but I was wondering. Does LibreTube have a version with SponsorBlock like it does on the IzzyOnFDroid repo? I've been using SB so long I can't go without it!
Yes it has sponsor block. You can also hook it to a piped instance so you can view subscription on desktop
