Tubular for Android of which I thought it uses yt_dlp, still works well.
IS THIS WHY SEAL ISN'T WORKING OH NOOO
The day smart tube next stops working is the day i stop using youtube. I will NEVER watch a shitty youtube ad and I'm sure as shit not paying google any money whatsoever.
about +12 hours ago spotdl (which uses yt-dlp) was broken. But I keep go on watching videos on newpipe
Yt-dlp worked for me 3 hours ago
Well, I sure hope this doesn't come to be. I don't wanna use their official website, the 3rd party tools are great! But YouTube has become an essential part of my everyday life…
And yes, I have looked into alternatives. They lack what YouTube got, which is the creators I already like (pretty much all of them exclusive to YouTube). Best I could get is copycats. You might be able to find something similar, but not the same (unless you like tech, I guess. If all you consume is tech, you won't lack options (especially if you don't care for specific creators))
