Anyone else having this problem with YouTube Music?

Jeez, this used to have almost no ads for me (I guess this region didn't have a lot of ads, when I was traveling and in country's capital it suddenly had more ads) but now not only there are ads every 10s but also it's an UI nightmare, after I skip the ad there's still text and logo taking half the screen and I can't loop music videos, change between songs, etc because of it. Any idea how to deal with this on Android? Some ad blocker or maybe F-Droid has some open source YouTube Music app?

A Simple way around this is get Raspberry pi it's like tiny computer around the size of credit card when you use that adblocker stuff fully built in allowing YouTube to show no ads or other places that's what I normally use to get around it

DONT go via the play store as you will get the BS ad / knock off version and it's a pile of shite.

Damn, I think I actually already have Tubular, that's NewPipe fork , I use it to watch stuff sometimes without being logged in and without shorts wasting my time. It's really good. The thing is I'm looking for something that shows only my YT Music library without anything else. Trying OpenTune and NuTube now, pretty cool they both have background playback and no ads, weird problem I have with OpenTune is it only plays music but doesn't show music vids lol. Kreate doesn't load my playlist even.

Damn, normally I actually watch ads for educational purposes but they completely broke the official app, can't access player buttons even.
