Initial player response is not valid. Doesn’t inspire confidence that it is immediately broken.
eh, i don't think it's fair to discount a youtube frontend for having a bug, especially not a frontend as new as this one. projects at this early a stage always have issues, & youtube frontends have to deal with the added bonus of google randomly rate-limiting & consistently trying to break them. youtube frontends are always going to have issues & need constant updates by nature, there's not much any of them can do about it
It happened on every video I clicked so as far as I could tell it just doesn’t work. Maybe that’s technically a bug but for me it means that’s the end of my experience with it.
main instance is being rate limited - basically Google likes to go 'fuck you' and kill the main instance for a few days. just switch to a smaller instance and you'll be good
