 NewPipe overall as it's definitely in the top ten FOSS Android apps to use!

 
Try pipepipe?

I switched from newpipe, and it seems OK. Only problem I've
encountered are occasional playback stops when switching
networks. Gives a network error, so as best I can tell it involves a
rough hand off from one network to another. For me, mostly on wifi, or
wifi to cellular. My solution so far is to switch to celluar network
before starting.

Interesting this PipePipe enhanced NewPipe enhanced YouTube client APK.

I'm using NewPipe 0.27.2 which has that same issue if you change networks,
it crashes but it recovers pretty quickly with a kill and restart step.

I installed PipPipe 3.7.0 from F-Droid and upon first inspection it looks
exactly like NewPipe does, even down to the icons and color schemes.

Thanks for letting me know about this app, which, if it works at least as
well as NewPipe does to replace the YouTube client, then it's a keeper!
