blargh513 comments on ‘I want to cancel’: YouTube Premium quietly hikes its US prices for the first time in three years, forcing many users to consider the unthinkable

Allegedly, the "developers" of the app behave poorly towards "code contributors" who did large amounts of work for free, leading to those contributors leaving to start Morphe.

Later, ReVanced allegedly copied a lot of Morphe code without attribution, when the Morphe open source licence required attribution, with an alleged screenshot of the ReVanced discord channel showing a developer wanting to use AI to automatically copy Morphe code. The ReVanced subreddit also allegedly bans people who bring up Morphe.

I would recommend firefox + ublock origin also for phone. Install firefox, and though the menu add the extensions "video background play fix" and "ublock origin".

They think delay before every video and "'experiencing interruptions? Find out why" banners are going to make me turn off my ubo. Good luck with that.
