Oh my god, same! I’ve been using it for a week or so thanks to Lemmy and it stopped working yesterday.
Comment on YouTube won't let me watch a video unless I sign in...

Unfortunately this has been going on few several months now. YT is actively blocking IPs if they think they are from data centers, VPNs, or proxies.
They’ve also been doing some under the hood cryptographic changes that cause breakages from time to time in Invidious (the backend for FreeTube)

I had a private invidious instance, with the bad idea to be attached with my paid domain, and even it was private , google crawl bots listed it into the Google Safe Browsing blacklist. In consequence, my domain admin banned me: i had 1 year paid, they didn’t refund, and imagine the disaster in all my self hosted apps.

oh shit, I did not even consider that could happen. I uh… need to go tear down an instance I don’t really use anymore.
