VueTube (pronounced View Tube: /ˈvjuːˌtjuːb/) is a simple FOSS video streaming client aimed to recreate ALL features from their respective apps (and more). It already ships with a great set of features:

Themes: Light, dark, OLED and all the colors of the rainbow! Set the accent and background color according to your preferences.
Customizable UI: Customize buttons, corners and disable parts of the UI that you don't use to get an optimal experience.
Auto updates: Be notified when an update is available, download through the app and downgrade if you don't like it!
Tracking protection: No telemetry data is sent from your device by default and we don't use external APIs. Privacy is neccesary!
Custom video player: There is a player integrated in the application with everything you need to be happy, such as 16x speed.
Translations: App is available in more than 25 languages! Default language is determined according to your device configuration.
Return YouTube Dislike: Enable dislike counters in videos again.
SponsorBlock: Skip automatically sponsors and annoying segments in videos.

And much more is planned …

Anti-Features:

NonFreeNet (this application promotes/depends a non-Free network service):
⇒ This app depends on YouTube.

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
