  Yt-Dlp has been breaking recently and requiring cookies to be entered in order to work at all.

  I’ve never seen a company quadruple dip on something before. It’s like surviving enshittification and then still continuing to push for further revenues.

    It has been breaking a lot lately and it’s really sad. I pretty much pull all of my content off of YouTube now through yt-dlp so once that goes, im pretty much entirely YouTube free. I absolutely refuse to use it in the state it’s in now and really wish more creators would offer content on other platforms. Yt-dip is amazing and great but shouldn’t be the permanent solution.

      Isn’t that what Nebula/CuriosityStream is? All my favorite YouTubers promote it, though the caveat is you have to pay but I think the money actually goes to the creators (and they put bonus content on it like a patreon).

        With YouTube 55% of the money goes to the creators (and they don’t need to pay hosting costs).

    Never seen this, though i’m only a occasionally user.
