It's probably a TOS violation but you can combine it with pinchflat to strip ads and sponsored content from YouTube. It's not a general YouTube app though, rather you use it to preserve channels you're interested in.

You can also use Jellyfin to serve legally purchased music from bandcamp etc, or movies and TV shows ripped from Blurays and DVDs.
