I think YouTube was having issues. Try using NewPIpe again.
I have NewPipe, PipePipe, Tubular (newpipe + sponsorblock) and Grayjay all installed. If one fails, i check the others, and if they all fail, i check /c/newpipe
There really is no way to win, enshittification is winning.
Practical Engineering is also on Nebula (among other some high quality YouTube channels), and tou can get an ad-free yearly sub for around $30. Not giving my views or af-money to Google.
Plus the money actually goes directly to the creators you watch.
The fact that you knew the channel based on the subtitles is incredible 😂
To be fair the topic is very specific. There are not that many big channels that talk about engeneering, esspecially bridge engeneering. At least not that I know of.
There is "Real Civil Engineer", but he's actually an architect
If you’re considering Nebula, I’d, personally, go for the lifetime subscription. It’s the better deal after 5 years.
10 years in my case. I'm grandfathered into a 30$ sub
Better deal after 5 years, if they still exist and honor the lifetime subscription by the time 5 years have passed
They can’t not honour the contract, can they? The only risk is their going bankrupt, which seems unlikely, given for how long they’ve existed already.
They can’t not honour the contract, can they?
Wouldn't be the first time something like that happens:
Let me rephrase: It would be illegal for them to not honour their contract. Of course shitty companies may be shitty and reap lawsuits in return.
Maybe blur is just another benefit of cable-stayed bridges
No, cable stayed bridges would never betray me like that.
My friend consider: PipePipe.
Can I port my subscription list from newpipe to pipepioe?
And settings as well. Yes.
Yes. PipePipe is a fork of NewPipe.
Pipepipe is great! Works really good so far.
if you want an app, revanced is good. it has the same UI of the normal YouTube app (minus whatever you don't want, like ads or shorts or news etc, it's one of the most customizable ones I've seen) and besides adblocking has sponsorblock and return dislike and stuff built in (optional ofc) you can still use new pipe for downloads when you press the in-app download button and I like that feature a lot.
my other suggestion is Firefox + ublock origin. can never go wrong with the classics haha
edit: revanced.app is the official site
If on ios, Unwatched is my holy grail
Where can one get revanced? Give a brother a link?
Here here. Just do a quick search on how to use it. Basically, download a YouTube APK on a browser and patch it in the app. That's it.
From where to download the yt apk? It keeps downloading a zip.
Try Revanced manager. Or Tubular. Or FreeTube. Or Grayjay...... There are so many. Even for android tv. There is YouTube next
FreeTube is currently broken, maybe for the same reason OP is having problems, YouTube changed something on their end. Although supposedly the fix is coming through shortly. Shoutouts to the maintainers doing all this work.
That's correct, that's why it wasn't the only one I mentioned. Grayjay is so damn reliable. Louis Rossmann is crazy and got grayjay on the freaking Google play store. Lmao
Practical Engineering?
Yup!
Grayjay still works fine.
Tried it recently.. That shit ain't gonna last. Too good to be true haha
We said that about (re)vanced
You could also simply use firefox
Currently borked on firefox as well. Youtube just implemented some new anti-adblock fuckery.
works fine here
Working again for me now. Could've been AB testing maybe if not everyone was impacted.
Just checked, they said it's done!
Not published to production yet, but if you have a github account, you can download the nightly which works.

Have you tried changing your DNS to one of these:
- 194.242.2.4#base.dns.mullvad.net
- 76.76.2.2#https://freedns.controld.com/p2
https://mullvad.net/en/help/dns-over-https-and-dns-over-tls
PipePipe.
I had to look around for it, but newpipe po-token version is still working for me. It uses some different method of fetching the video, but with the same interface.
