Blocking ads is illegal? The entire patch system is user based. If you just want to block ads, Revanced is just as legal as everything else you listed.
Certainly it is illegal to distribute Vanced because it’s a modified version of Youtube official app, which is copyrighted.
Re-vanced may have found a workaround so that users modify the app themselves, but Google may claim DMCA’s anti-circunvention rule is being breached, and sue the relevant parties if they wanted to.

Cool, nowhere did I indicate that I should be presenting a link to download the app nor did I tell anyone where to get it. Point moot.

Okay but if they start using a different method of ad blocking you’re going to just tell them the same answer, that they’re going to get sued into the ground? No the answer was looking for alternatives, and revanced is an alternative whether you like it or not.
Your attitude kind of sucks, especially when you add your comment with a stupid reply with

You sure like being inclusive on this platform, be better.
I’m sorry but I don’t remember typing this LostRedditors stuff. I’m just as confused as you are. (some mod edited my comment?)
And it was never my intention being combative about the NewPipe competitors. I just think Vanced and ReVanced are in a completely different category of apps. As they potentially may step on some DMCA rule, they’re far more vulnerable of being taken out by Google. And most hobbyst devs just abandon their projects at the first sign of a DMCA or Cease and Desist.
