I’ve recently “moved” countries! And by that I of course mean the country I exit from online. I’m trying to keep a perma-VPN situation going.
YouTube loaded for me on my computer, where I’m logged in, even through uBlock Origin. But no luck on their locked down phone app, where I’m also logged in. Very weird. Shuffled servers a bit and still nothing. And I’m not talking about sports content which is always super locked down.
Anyone else facing this problem? Has this been the norm for a while in some exit countries? Is this just one of those wait for it to tide over situations that works itself out in the end?
Weirdly it loads shorts just fine.
I wonder at what point it would end up being better to just rent a VPS and wireguard into that.
In case your answer is “Just use Peertube!” my reply is Inshallah I will

Try something like a Revanced patch for your youtube client on your phone if you haven’t already - mine’s been chugging along with a VPN for ages
