Youtube Vanced has been dead for years.
You want Youtube ReVanced.
This is much easier than people make it out to be. You don't even need root. Just download the specific APK version from APK Mirror (there's a link within ReVanced Manager that opens a list of search results for you), patch the APK via ReVanced Manager's local storage method, then install the patched APK (just use the "Regular" method for installing).
Make sure you uninstall the stock Youtube app (or at least disable it within Android Settings).
Or just go straight to their Github page.
I've been using Revanced since back when it was still "Vanced". The only time I ever had that issue, it ended up being nothing more than a single toggle in Settings. I forget which setting it was, it's been a few years since then. Something about spoofing? IDK anymore. I've updated a few versions since then and it's not been an issue.
