Ad-blocking: With YouTube++, you can get rid of annoying ads that interrupt your video watching experience. This tweak blocks all types of ads, including pre-roll, mid-roll, and banner ads.
SkyTube. SkyTube is another alternative to Vanced that offers its services without having to sign in to your Google ID. The content will stream ad-free and users can subscribe to the channels, create a playlist as well and even block the channels which you don’t want to see on the feed.
AD blocking is not illegal, they can't ban your Google account for it. Vanced was banned because they were distributing modded apks of youtube which is illegal, so vanced can be banned but apps like revanced can't be banned because they don't distribute apks, they just patch your existing apk locally.
