I miss YouTube Vanced, it had better UI and more features than the official app. I pay for premium and I like it and all, but I wish they could've adopted some features from Vanced instead of monetizing previously free features such as background play.
Have you tried ReVanced? It's just as good if not better
ReVanced is doing the thing for me where it lets you get about 10sec into a video and freezes. IIRC, I'll have to look for an update. I had to use regular YouTube on my phone today and my god, it's unusable. Absolute trashfire of ads and sponsored videos clogging up my feed.
Had the same issue. The solution that worked for me is going to Settings>Youtube>Miscellaneous then turning on "Spoof Player Parameter" and "Spoof Player Parameter Type". Might help if you update beforehand too.
I can confirm this works on the new v18.29 and v18.30 apks.
