        I think it’s a bug. I tried watching something a few hours ago and it also wouldn’t start. There’s a bunch of CORS errors in the console. It also won’t play on my phone either. I’m using Firefox on both, so it’s kind ironic that the “privacy-respecting” frontend won’t work on the (relatively) more privacy-respecting browser.

        Only for Android, there Vivaldi has inbuild a own client. A desktop client for PC is eg FreeTube. But it’s a question of little time that front-ends will work in YT, there are more and more vids which are blocked in any front end. What is urgently missing is a real alternative to YT that today unfortunately does not exist 🤬
