It doesn't use the api. It scrapes their site.

Google are playing whack a mole. The most persistent will win I'd say.

Version 0.27.2 is working fine at this moment.

For me too, but FreeTube on one of my desktops has died, half ot the Invidious sites I hit complain about "Protecting the community" and won't play anymore, and Grayjay is hit-and-miss. And I read somewhere that the disruption even affects the official Youtube client.

I think Google is A/B testing how much impact their next fuckery is going to have and you're lucky enough to be in the A group at the moment.

Loving NewPipe, getting annoyed with FreeTube. FreeTube is playing videos but the video quality is dubious. For some reason it won't even hold 720p, at least it takes a minute of watching a video for it to get there.
