Apparantly, YouTube has fully rolled out their blocking of residential IPs. Things such as Freetube do not seem to be affected.

    Don’t do Youtube a favor by saving the videos it hosts.

    The more people are inconvenienced by Google, the more Youtubers are squeezed by Google and the more annoyed subscribers they lose, the better for alternative platforms.

    Let Youtube enshittify itself to oblivion.

      Wouldn’t that same effect happen if people started to pirate YT videos on other platforms? The creators lose viewers and revenue, so they’ll be pissed either way.
