Use UBlock, sponsorblock, firefox, etc. Recently it broke again, some stupid permission to connect youtube to other google services pop-up is permablocking it and I can’t be bothered investigating.
Go to FreeTube cause why not. Works rather well for how it works. Especially for listening to albums it is fine, for video it’s often too slow.
They found a way to inject bullshit in there too, now? And basically everywhere.
Albums are sometimes uploaded as 1 long video. Those are fun. Often they’re uploaded as all songs seperately and then there’s a playlist which makes it ‘the album’. They used to be okay too.
Not anymore. People started injecting bullshit videos within the playlists. No, Andrew fucking Tates bullshit is not part of this album. Fuuuu. ANDREW I CAN’T STAY FUCKING MOTIVATED BECAUSE SOME ARSEHOLE INJECTED YOUR BULLSHIT VIDEO INTO THE MUSIC PLAYLIST I’LD LIKE TO LISTEN TO WITHOUT YOUR BULLSHIT INTERRUPTIONS!
I need to work on permanently replacing youtube. It no longer serves its purpose (for me of listening to albums) reliably.
Yes Newpipe is also broken. It’s YouTube messing with their side of things. It started to glitch last week but ever since two days ago it stopped working entirely. Freetube still does the job if I really, really need to watch a video. But I guess I’ll wait for a patch and have a YT detox in the meantime.
Maybe there’s an update for newpipe. I had to update freetube on my tv.
I downloaded 27.1 some hours ago and most videos play now. But I still get a lot of crashes. The newpipe team is already on it though
Thanks for the update.
I’ve ReVanced patched the official YouTube app currently.
