When i noticed i checked the github to see there was an active bug report.
24 hours later they where talking about a fix that was on its way.
I updated this morning and all is well.
Okay but imagine if you didn’t have all this wasted oppositional bullshit, and we just built open architectures.
Too late, one small change and it works. Just some params.
Google is going to keep finding ways to break these front-ends as they search for ways other than ads to monetize their services. I fully expect they will eventually lockout the public API so only the official app can use it in that quest as well. In my opinion the front-ends are just a bandaid and the real solution is something other than YouTube completely, if that is even possible at this point.
All of the front-end solutions are telling Google is that people want that content and they will come to YouTube for it one way or the other, Google just needs to figure out how to force people down the workflow that gets them the most money.
It does seem like they moved their focus away from ublockO to focus on the front ends, though. While I can’t use invidious, I can use regular ol’ YT with UblockO activated and I’m not constantly having to fight and wait for an update.
I think it’s funny those pricks are fighting a multi front battle that they’re clearly losing lol
