if you want an app, revanced is good. it has the same UI of the normal YouTube app (minus whatever you don’t want, like ads or shorts or news etc, it’s one of the most customizable ones I’ve seen) and besides adblocking has sponsorblock and return dislike and stuff built in (optional ofc) you can still use new pipe for downloads when you press the in-app download button and I like that feature a lot.
my other suggestion is Firefox + ublock origin. can never go wrong with the classics haha
edit: revanced.app is the official site
revanced.net is unofficial and not open source (and blocked by ublock origin)! only official site is revanced.app or their github
