I just tried NewPipe. However, after downloading a video, you can no longer play it directly in NewPipe (with NewPipe's ability to play in the background), only in an external player.

If you install VLC, you can let videos (or audios) play in the background. I also found it more stable for watching/streaming longer in NewPipe.

For that reason I call it NewPipe/VLC, or as I've recently taken to calling it, NewPipe plus VLC.
