I was concidering switching to an apple TV if it had proper adblock for YouTube. I guess this won't be the case then

You can use Yatee on the ATV. Or if you have a home server / pi you can also try iSponsorBlockTV

I've tried yatee several times now on various ios devices but there always seem to be issues. Do you know an invidious instance where 4k works reliably?

I set up my own once. It worked well but I really missed the UI and the suggestions from the official app. I ended up getting a Premium account from a relative from a South American country where it is dirty cheap. That plus iSponsorBlockTV is such a great experience.

Android TV has it with SmartTube. Roku has it with Playlet (although somewhat limited). iOS has it with Yatee and uYou+ (idk about tvOS).
