by now i'm almost fully switched off of directly using google products other than an android phone (pinephone was unfortunately not usable when I tried it) and google maps (when i'm delivery driving i just need it to work smoothly, don't have time to troubleshoot like i would with other software)

it's been a few years since i did a foss deep dive so i imagine pinephone and/or osm have made progress.

edit: also invidious instances kept breaking so i finally just went back to regular youtube in browser. newpipe on mobile

Try piped.video, it is the web frontend to NewPipe's backend. Like a better Invidious.
