Comment on Google just broke *all* third-party web clients, including yt-dlp; a full JS implementation is now required.
For now.
Revanced actually is the official YouTube client, just modified on the users device before installation.
I actually did not know that. I mean I should have figured cause the patching looked really similar to when I soft modded my Wii, but I’m not a very bright man.
If you patched it yourself, surely you must have noticed downloading the official YouTube client to modify, haha
Oh yeah, but I really just clicked on the build number in the patcher app and it brought me to apkmirror automagically
Revanced manager just installs it. You can do it manually, but it’s way less of a faff to use the manager, it keeps everything up to date as well
