Firefox is GOAT, but I do have Brave installed on my phone specifically for playing YouTube. The Brave browser automatically blocks YouTube ads, allows me to play videos in windowed mode, and allows me to play videos with the screen off.

I don’t do anything else in Brave, so I’ll probably hang onto it as basically a YouTube app.

You might want to look into NewPipe then. Lets you do all those things with YT, plus you can also download the videos or their audio only

I’m on an iPhone, which I why I don’t use all the other things Android people suggest.

Brave has been about the only thing I’ve found that works and is easy for iPhone.

If you’re on apple I’d recommend giving Orion browser a try. It blocks all ads by default, including YouTube. It’s become my default browser on all my devices.
