I'm completely opposite. Never tried revanced cause newpipe works great

I'm having such a difficult time with Newpipe. Lots of bugs since forever, no support for account, no way to sort channel videos. I'll use it out of necessity rather than by preference.

You might want to try "Tubular". I guess it's a fork of NewPipe. I think NewPipe is not still updated, but Tubular is?

Newpipe is in active development, new versions just take a while to be released

Thanks for the info. The delays probably fooled me!

The fork with sponsorblock is unfortunately very buggy, scrolling comments causes it to crash and lag, some videos just show "content unavailable" and I constantly get "something went wrong" banners popping up - even though sometimes nothing looks wrong. Vanced rarely gives me any issues aside from needing to be repatched a couple times a year.
