What’s New:
Most importantly, this release contains a workaround for the recent AntiBot protection changes by YouTube.
FAQ about the current situation
● Help! I can’t play videos? If you rely on public Piped instances, go to Settings -> Instance and enable Disable Piped proxy as well as Local streams extraction. Disclaimer: The bot-blocked API call will now be done directly from your IP address, which is obviously less privacy-friendly. Using a VPN is recommended, but might not always work since YouTube blocks IPs of VPN providers as well.
● Help! I can’t add videos to a playlist? If you’re using the app with a Piped account, it’s sometimes not possible to add videos to a playlist due to Piped. If you don’t use a Piped account, playlists should work as expected after this release.
● If you’re self-hosting a private Piped instance, everything is most likely still working normally anyways.
● Why did it take two weeks to publish a fix? Because open source developers also have a private life and do all that work in their free time without any monetary compensation.
● If you consider this project useful, please consider making a small donation to show your appreciation via https://liberapay.com/Bnyro or https://github.com/sponsors/Bnyro. Thank you!
● Can we expect more such breaking changes in the future? Only YouTube knows.
