If you use Freetube, you haven’t failed to notice that Google is on the war path again and broke it a few days ago. See this bug report.
Please note that it’s been fixed in this PR. If you download the nightly build #5652, it now works like a champ.
Thanks team Freetube!

Still less tiring than having to deal with a bunch of ads/other bullshit that google pushes.
Personally, if I can’t watch Youtube in third party clients - which happens regularly courtesy of Google - then I don’t watch Youtube at all. The official clients are simply too painful - not to mention, a privacy-invading nightmare.
For sure, I use Libredirect on firefox to open all youtube links in freetube. There isn’t anything worth watching on youtube where I have to be signed in to see. Not worth the privacy loss.
