Yes! The Freetube team are real heroes, and really keep up with the cat and mouse of it all at S-tier on all fronts, including even getting updates into flathub promptly, which not every project is good about.

Yay!!! Great news everyone

Unfortunately the only invidious instance I've been able to rely on doesn't enable the API endpoints. The admin is a real trooper though. I'm not sure if it's the flagship.
Check out the workaround with an external player. It worked for me during the time friend didn't work the past few days.

Every time freetube is broken, I have to use grayjay, which pushes a fix almost immediately, while freetube takes a couple of days.

The external player thing has never worked for me, at least when I set it to VLC, which just displays an error. I must be missing something.

Yeah, I mean, there are other ways, like STube on Android, which I think is a one man band but is always faster, but it's not even so much about even just watching, Freetube is a great overall management experience for keeping track sans Google like nothing else with history and export et al across all platforms basically. I'm constantly impressed by them.

It's still not working for me unfortunately, I'm using the latest release and I get "unplayable, video unavailable" error on everything.

I had the same issue, but mpc worked.

I was having issues with it the other day, and so I pasted the URL into my browser and it would not let me watch past 1 min of any video without disabling ublock.
Needless to say, I didn't watch the video. I'm done with using YouTube in any official way. If they successfully remove all options for avoiding ads on their site, then I will just never go there again.

I wish MPC had a linux version. One of the few pieces of Windows software (along with foobar2000) that I actually miss.

I used haruna and it works. The instructions on the FreeTube GitHub could be clearer though. Depending on if you're using FreeTube and or the external player as flatpak there are different ways to get it working.

I'm not understanding why it doesn't work when I turn on my VPN, though. Is there a way to watch Youtube and have the VPN on?
Yes, that should work, I believe, though I am no expert. I watch YT via Freetube with my VPN on most of the time, and right now too. I use Mozilla VPN if that matters and have it connected to just some other US city, but as always, YMMV.
