Everyone keeps saying it's the best media player, so I'm interested in getting one, but I haven't had a google account for many years now and don't want to create a new one just for this.

Does anyone know if it's possible to run one without a google account?

Edit: I would only want to use it for Plex and maybe youtube

SmartTubeNext (STN) is the Android TV equivalent of Revanced.

Not really. STN is not a hacked-up YT app like Revanced, it's an entirely independent FOSS re-creation like NewPipe. A major difference to NewPipe is that it is focused on android TV and uses the (private) YT API just like the official YT app.

That's fair. I was commenting from more of a user experience perspective
