I watch YouTube through newpipe, and recently tried pipepipe too. They work great, but lately I have been blocked on several occasions with a message that either says “content unavailable” or “your IP has been blocked by YouTube”. I usually use a VPN which has helped but tried it today and still got this message :/

Finally changing the location on the VPN seemed to work. But seriously wtf is going on?

    This group is “DeGoogle Yourself”, and people are talking about needing to watch YT?! Interesting. It’s not degoogle for sure, but hey… :-)

    How about starting to make it worthwhile to use other sites than googles? I mean - go to an alternative, start following some content you like, or make your own.

    It’s pretty sad, especially in a group like this, to talk about your addiction and how you can’t degoogle.
