It says here that LibreTube works, and I just checked and can confirm. In its settings, choose SponsorBlock -> Enable DeArrow.
Yeah I know I tried this one recently too but with recent YouTube restrictions It doesn't work for me anymore
yeah, nowadays i think they changed their focus from watching directly from YouTube or piped to being a client for personal instances, quite a shame...
did you try to change instance in settings?
There were some preset piped instances in it I tried some of them. I have to mention that I use a VPN to access YouTube and maybe that is my problem but I have to use a VPN since YouTube access is restricted where I live
I use LibreTube and I can confirm that with settings "Disable Piped proxy" and "Local stream extraction" enabled it works. Give it a try
Yeah someone else suggested that too I installed it again and to my surprise it works for now but I'm sure I tried the local extraction the last time too anyways thanks gonna test it for a few days with multiple VPN servers to see if it really passes Edit: it still doesn't work with some VPN servers "confirm you're not a bot" error
The Dev is implementing a local only mode for the next version. It can be downloaded from the Nightly-Builds Repo if you want to try it.
This is the link to the nightly-builds: https://github.com/libre-tube/NightlyBuilds
Be aware that it is a Debug-Build so it will be a bit laggy
Thanks but How can it solve "confirm you're not a bot" error without a logged in cookies?
