Last week I tried to watch the "Shut the Fuck Up PSA" from the National Lawyers Guild, and it was age blocked. I did try to log in, but now you have to VERIFY your age too (obviously I clicked off that shit).
But honestly, alternative frontends like Freetube and yt-dlp might not make the cut anymore:
Mpv crashed, and Invidious instances keep saying "video may not be age appropriate"
Edit: My state is soon to perform age verification on social media sites, so this is probably the cause. I'll just have to VPN to other states or countries until VPNs fail/are blocked.
Holy shit, that's crazy. Thankfully I've moved most of my stuff from Google to other services (I love mailbox.org ♥️) but I might have a thing or two stuck on there...
YT Music Sidenote
Anyone know a good way of downloading your entire liked music playlist on YT music? I was never good about making my own playlists, and I paused and deleted my YT music history like 2 years ago, so the likes is the only thing I have. I've recently started using Listenbtainz to track my history.Thanks for the heads up, hopefully I can just ride this one out, but it's ass man...
