I hope people aren't giving hate over this. NewPipe is fucking amazing. Definitely give a thank you them.
Oh I'm giving hate... to Youtube.
Bear in mind that in-video ads that Google is experimenting with will still cause 403 errors. There is another bug report for that. However, this fixes most playback issues.
That seems like an odd error code to receive, to me. 403 is a permissions problem, right? Forbidden request.
Or, I guess it makes sense if you're a scraper of some kind? Maybe? Someone would be able to explain the behavior to me, I'm sure. 🙏
It's from Google intentionally breaking things
Yeah, seems like an intentional thing, otherwise it makes little sense not to be allowed to watch an ad... 🤪
Thank you good people of github for making my life better!
Updated to this version, but it's still not working for me.
Wonderful news. I just updated and it's working again. YouTube is so far down the enshittification tunnel that it's only a matter of time until something like this gets rolled out again. I really want Peertube to be the one, but there's just not that many people using it. I've done away with reddit and Twitter and now much prefer Lemmy and Mastadon, but YouTube is harder to kick.
I'm a user of the fork "NewPipe Sponsorblock", and so far I received no update.
The dev has a new repo and its called Tubular. Se thing as NP Sponsor Block. Something about NP not wnating to be associated in name.
But as others said. Let the builds roll down. The devs aren't getting paid.
Yup. Grayjay has been working for me, and that dev gets paid AFAIK.
the fork "NewPipe Sponsorblock"
Which one? Also...it has been less than 24 hours. Give them time to pull changes.
