    Unlock origin and ReVanced is great, but it doesn’t allow casting to the TV without ads…

        Its the only way we can watch TV in our house.

        Im just afraid that they might remove thr ability to install custom apks altogether.

      Does ReVanced still work? I know YouTube Vanced was killed a while back, but I think I tried ReVanced recently but couldn’t get it to work.

        All of these options are unreasonable when you are talking a whole household and catering to a family that is not tech savvy. I have a pihole and it does not block ads from the YouTube TV app.

        I have a plex going with content enough for the adults, but the kids consume so much media there is no reasonable way to get enough and fast enough and to meet their current interests. Youtube is the only streaming subscription we have left in the house because nothing even comes close for kids. Even Disney+ completely fumbles when it comes to appealing to what used to be its target market.

        You can also use Apple TV which is hands down best streaming box, use ATV remote on your couch without faffing with computers and pay for good service that YouTube and content creators on YouTube provide.

        It’s easy to avoid paying but the experience is just worse.

        And if you’re really short on cash, subscribe from Argentina or India and pay ~$2.

          I am a big fan of isponsorblocktv which sits on a network device like a nas and skips YouTube sponsor segments on Apple TV.

            Whoa, this looks awesome and I do have always on server for Usenet/Plex and Homebridge.

            Thanks!

            [edit] Installed and working great but I had to change os.exit() to sys.exit() in one of the files, looks like it’s not compatible with recent Python versions out of the box. Converted into system.d daemon, now working 24/7.
