I am looking for for an app that registers as a YouTube endpoint, but has no ads and tracking (or backdoors). I had one (forgot the name) which stopped working. Please advice.

Revanced instructions (official Youtube app, but with adblocking, sponsorblock and other nice improvements).

Uninstall Youtube (or disable if not possible)
https://github.com/ReVanced/revanced-manager/releases
Install
Open, go to "Patcher", find "Youtube" and download the specified recommended version from https://www.apkmirror.com/
Patch it, install it.
Install MicroG if you want to use your Google account with it: https://github.com/TeamVanced/VancedMicroG/releases
Launch your installed youtube app. You will need to login from within the app if you are using MicroG.
