MODERATORS
major streaming platform like netflix, amazon disny etc, are using drm. you may experience limited video quality on your device. especially older devices will be capped at 720p
yt-dlp and similar tools will stop working, but there is already a temporary solution. The current drm issue with YouTube is limited to the app on TVs and consoles, web browsing (windows, linux) is unaffected
Has it already been implemented? Glad I archived the videos / channels I wanted.
AFAIK it's been implemented years ago, but only for when the uploader checks a box in the advanced settings for the video.
Some videos are barricaded with DRM, most aren't.
Will this affect Invidious, or apps like FreeTube?
I'm guessing yes...
I believe freetube uses yt-dlp, so probably eventually yes. Many of these tools do.
