Nope, I’m getting the UMP redirect fail issue here.

Thanks for the heads up. I signed up for Futo Chat on Zulip and realized I didn’t mention the problem was on my desktop client (MacOS). However, through your link, I found the update for Android. I’m happy with it, so cheers for that. For those interested, the Grayjay announcement on the 17th was: “Hey everyone, we’ve been aware of playback issues for YouTube and have been working hard to fix them. This fix is now released on the stable channel (and requires an app update). We are aware that age-restricted, controversial videos, or other videos requiring login may not yet work.” We will work on this next week. The desktop release required for this fix will also be available next week. Here is the change log for the new mobile version 281:"

Edit: getting a UMP redirect fail issue on Android and can’t play YT. When turning off my VPN, it seems to have fixed the issue. (perhaps temporarily)

Hey, I paid for a Proton Unlimited package for the second year. After hearing that Proton CEO Andy Yen voiced support for the U.S. Republican Party, I wondered about the company’s direction. However, there isn’t clear evidence that a Trump administration would be anti-privacy or worse than the Democrats regarding privacy in the U.S. I chose the company because Proton AG is headquartered in Plan-les-Ouates, Switzerland, where its data centers are also located. Additionally, I selected the EU model when purchasing. They have over 110 servers and seem fairly fast compared to my experience with NordVPN over the years. Sadly, in the YouTube field, most of these IP addresses across its global servers have been flagged, and I’m pretty sure I can’t even post this reply on lemmy.world without pausing my VPN.

Grayjay is great and I look forward to some bug fixes in the next updates. Unfortunately, I also get YT blocking errors mostly when using a VPN (Proton). A side note, for some reason I can’t paste links into the search bar, this kind of throws my game off when switching from Freetube or other YT links.

I love LibreWolf but sadly on my Mac with the latest OS, Apple’s security measures regarding application notarization breaks the installation process.
