Freetube is working again!
-
A massive thanks to @LuanRT for providing the fix regarding to the extraction of the deciphering functions. Also, big thanks to @PikachuEXE for coming up with a potential alternative solution!

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.

It works via my VPN. Maybe switch it to a different location?

Sorry I meant to say MPV, on linux here.
Oh word... I tried MPV briefly but didn't like it as much as vlc

Just in case anyone is curious:
If you navigate to "actions" on the github, you can download nightly versions that have the fixes days before the release is done.

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.
Same. I've been tentatively exploring podcasts, since most of what I used YouTube for was listening to videos to get to sleep at night. It would be exciting if Peertube use picked up because of this, though.

Do you know of a working exit country/location? I've tried a few different locations with no dice, but if I know there is one that works for someone else, I'll certainly try that.
If you are from a Western country, use smaller, non-English speaking countries.
