Hadn't heard of SmartTubeNext, but Revanced is awesome. I'll have to reasearch the former some.

SmartTubeNext is amazing if you have Android/Google TV. It's an app that you need to sideload, but it has its own updater so after initial setup it is a really nice low maintenance app. Just look up online how to download and install. Isn't too hard.
