I recently got my (via VPN) YouTube subscription cancelled and now I am wondering, if YouTube videos are findable in the usenet or using torrent tracker.

Does anyone already have experience with this? I block ads, but it seems not like a sustainable solution.

I’d recommend yt-dlp for downloads.

If you want to stream, you can use yt-dlp in combination with mpv,

OR

You can just install FreeTube if you want SponsorBlock as well.

I second freetube

It gets broken by YouTube API changes quite often, especially if you want to Tunnel through invidious, but they update quite fast and the experience is super smooth when working
