I have been using freetube for a while now which is also facing this issue so it looks like a tug of war between the clients and YouTube which is getting others in the crossfire as well. But for some reason, when I add haruna as external player in freetube and launch a video it always works. Guessing other video players like vlc might also work which you can use with freetube and maybe other privacy focused clients.

I thought about making an *arr application for automating the downloading of your subscribed youtube channels and in quality you want. I want to call it yarrtube. Idk if anyone would be interested or not so only been a pipe dream.

POV 3 years from now: YouTube won’t let me watch a video unless I do a nazi salute

Grayjay can get around that issue in most cases.

freetube for windows and linux. newpipe for android.

I'm having the same issue on Freetube, it pops up and says it can't play the video because Youtube requires being signed in. Sometimes if I retry a couple of time it'll play, but usually keeps getting the same error. Freetube is great though, maybe they'll come up with a solution soon.

So bots just have to sign in?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 week ago

If you click Cancel and then simply search for the same video you can watch it without signing in. Total horseshit but still a good ‘fuck you’ move against YouTube.

I'm once again asking you to host Invidious (alternative YouTube frontend) locally on your PC.

I’ve just stopped watching. Plenty of other stuff to do. If they don’t want to show me their ads that’s their problem.
