Check out Tubular, a fork of Newpipe, which includes Sponsorblock and ReturnYoutubeDislike
Personally I find it a lifesaver for watching YouTube videos on mobile these days
There's a project which is currently being completed for that scenario, the Mose: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOSE
Not if you "fork" it locally by doing git clone --mirror and doing git push newOrigin --mirror 😉
It is directly supported and maintained from Google, which then bases Chrome on that project adding some proprietary code. So I think yes, it is doomed

You took a totally unrelated argument to justify an internal policy problem. Just open the dictionary and look at the definition before commenting, maybe you'll understand who's acting like a parrot here: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/whataboutism
Whataboutism at it's finest. Your nation spends hundred of billions of dollars in military spending and you get to look at 300M~ sent to a nation that is fighting tooth and nails to defend itself against an aggressor.
Do you think that 300M~ could really make a difference if used to do a salary reform toward teachers? In 2018 US teachers were 3,652,000. Those 300M~ would add 89$ a year to each teacher salary. This instead of helping people who are fighting and dying under the fire of missiles to keep their freedom (isn't it a value dear to you fellow Americans?) beign taken away from an authoritarian state.
I invite you to reflect more deeply before making these populist comments. People are dying and are appealing to the values you marketed for years. They are literally imploring the help of the west, because they know what being oppressed feels like.
If you want to help teachers, go vote for people who promote a better welfare and social system that can benefit people doing a public service. You can help your people and make the world a better place at the same time my dude
Try Blokada 5. It sets up a local vpn inside your phone and blocks all the ads and trackers. The application is free and open source. Don't download it from the play store as it downloads version 6, which requires a subscription and does cloud stuff (version 5 instead works locally)

Enjoy
Not really, but they are alternatives to each other. Bottles can also be configured to run "normal" applications alongside possible games and stuff, while Lutris has more a "gaming" UI vibes (but you can run everything you want on both of them really) and additionally provides some integrations for other emulators. I think it comes down to personal tastes at the end of the day, both of them under the hood use wine/proton and apply settings to it before running the application
Newpipe doesn't use youtube official API. It does webpage parsing afaik
