    After trying all the alternatives in the end I settled on self hosting <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Materialious&#x2F;Materialious" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Materialious&#x2F;Materialious

    All the YouTube alternative frontends are so privacy focused that they do not even offer video history in your account.

    Having video history is a must for me as I might start watching a video in my computer and then continue on my phone.

    Also as it is just a web (and includes support for SponsorBlock) it works everywhere, no need to patch apps or install extensions.

      I have watch history in NewPipe just fine? And I find it very convenient to know what I&#x27;ve already watched. All local, Google doesn&#x27;t need to store it for you &#x2F; you can&#x27;t lose access to it

        I think OP meant cross-device.
