Compatible with PeerTube. Unfortunately there is no login support but you can search, watch and subscribe to videos in the same feed with youtube and whatever else.

Awesome, adding to my current arsenal of alternative clients alongside FreeTube and NewPipe. One less chance for YouTube to force me onto their webpage.
NewPipe stopped work if you use a VPN, LibreTube instances all gone, Invidious few instances are working but not 100% of time, GrayJay most of time asks for login because Google indicates it is a bot
Dark times to watch Youtube
Newpipe currently works fine for me on a VPN. Revanced still works and I haven't patched it in like a year now. Maybe 1/100 videos with freetube will throw a IP block on VPN and usually I don't even need to change it, just reload the page. Occasionally freetube stops working for a few days which I can just use librewolf with unlock if I really want.
I'm not having any problems, other than watching too much YouTube.
It depends on the VPN. Google just blocks anything that it knows to be a VPN IP, so if they dont know the IP yet, they dont block it.
+1
Never had the issue, guess I'm on a good one lol
Could be regional too or follow some other intransparent pattern.
had a very hard time finding mullvad servers that could play youtube, but ivpn doesn't seem to have that issue at all
GrayJay most of time asks for login because Google indicates it is a bot
GrayJay does not ask for login, Google does. It will do the same thing if you navigate to the YT webpage.
GrayJay most of time asks for login because Google indicates it is a bot
Whenever it does that, I just open the Google login page and start clicking links (like the privacy policy, FAQ, reset password, etc) to "prove" that I'm human. That usually works at least for one video, if not more.
IT IS MY VPN WTFFFF. I though id fucked up my pihole triggered some bot prevention on yt via np. yooooooo omg thnx for this comment!
I'm currently trying out Pinchflat on my NAS .
Freetube sadly blocks me a lot and having the videos stored locally removes a lot of hassle.
