Wait, they have? I wonder how/if that would affect the functionality of apps like Newpipe/Freetube.
It completely breaks them, currently: https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/issues/11139
This applies to at least NewPipe and yt-dlp, probably basically every such tool. Also, if you use logged-in cookies and download, they sometimes ban your account! Fun!
Gross.
Welp, I sure hope either we stay on the winning side of the cat-and-mouse game or a lot of creators jump ship to other emerging platforms (not that there are many), because it'd be a damn shame to have to stop watching some of the creators I enjoy watching. Many of them are damned talented folks IMHO.
I've heard good things about Nebula, but sadly a lot of the channels I watch are not quite on there yet. Also, I'm broke, so there's that. Lol.
