I watch YouTube through newpipe, and recently tried pipepipe too. They work great, but lately I have been blocked on several occasions with a message that either says "content unavailable" or "your IP has been blocked by YouTube". I usually use a VPN which has helped but tried it today and still got this message :/

Finally changing the location on the VPN seemed to work. But seriously wtf is going on?

Are you being purposefully obtuse right now? There are tons of creators who post to YouTube and that's it. Nowhere else.
