I haven’t looked at youtube content for a while, however lately I can’t watch any videos using libretube. Something about “prove you’re not a bot” which I assume is a consequence of google’s crusade against add-ons and 3rd party tools. Is there a way around it or are we done with YT?

    Some instances are affected and some are not. Try to switch between them to find a working one.

    I think they’re all having trouble, but patches are coming out that fix things at least for Newpipe.

    Mine stopped working again today, but some of them like tubemae work fine, so I think it’s what you said, lot going on, they’re working on patches.
