Comment on YouTube Premium family plan price update ($17.99/month -> $32.99/month!)

In my experience Smart Tube for my Google tv is already blocked. Updated to the latest version and I still can’t sign in with it. The code for activating the device never appears.

You might not have the latest version, that was a known bug and fixed yesterday.
I was able to sign in yesterday after updating.

As @bestusername@aussie.zone said, there was a second update very soon after (so, two in total) after that “bug” (YouTube code change, is my bet).
Been working fine for me for me since then.

I’ve been using newpipe for android for several years.
It’s great. One thing I’ve learned about these apps though is that they’re brittle. Expect them to break, sometimes several times a month. That said, there’s never been a case where I’ve noticed it break but a patch wasn’t already released. The thing is, repo’s like f-droid often aren’t up to date. Much better to get the release from the source.

Yep - I don’t use F-droid. Obtainium FTW.
