Preferably it has SponsorBlock, and supports other platforms like Peertube

Use the normal YouTube app, and patch it with reVanced (on your phone). Doesn't directly support peer tube, but it's an ad free experience that you can tailor to your needs (including sponsor block and more).

    One doesn't need to resort to a proprietary app when there are actual FOSS alternatives IMO. This is a FOSS community so we should be sharing and promoting FOSS, not proprietary.

    ReVanced is a FOSS project, including the patches.

    The YouTube app that you recommended is proprietary, and patches don't make it FOSS. There are real FOSS apps being recommended in this thread and I don't think it's fair to the FOSS community to promote proprietary apps in competition with FOSS.
