When I used android vanced was the biggest frustration ever, every couple of days I had to reinstall it which was a pita, especially because the realisation came just as I began my commute. Back then I was a broke college student, if I had cash back then I would have gladly payed for premium.

Now I have switched to apple, afaik something like PiHole would be the only thing to get ad-blocked youtube on my TV plus it comes bundled with YouTube music
