be EU citizen and sideload a cracked YouTube (similar to vanced, but you need certificates on iOS which sucks)
pay for a dev account and sideload regardless of above
buy two apps: vinegar and AdGuard. AdGuard speaks for itself, vinegar is a tool that forces YouTube to use the html 5 player inside of safari and thus forcing it to your will
I know iPhones are hated here, but I saw the android will stop sideloading coming from a mile away. At least here in the eu apple can suck one and I can still sideload whatever I want
You can sideload up to three apps without a paid dev account, they just expire in 7 days. Use something like AltStore (or better yet SideStore) and you have an easy way to install and re-sign two other apps.

Yeah or services as Signulous could take a bit of strain away if you don’t want to be limited by the 7 days and 3 apps limit
??
ergo, there are extra steps, which is a pita, but not insurmountable.
I got certificates
Vinegar seems awesome. Thanks! Also, the dev’s other apps are pretty amazing too!
Thanks! Will look into the other apps too!
