That's how you do it! Fantastic setup you have, mine is only slightly different: 0% Twitter Mullvad VPN Have TOR browser ready if needed If practical, use a different browser sometimes Newpipe for YT on Android
great.l!! I use Mullvad, too.
Does your Newpipe also regularly refuse to playback videos since one of two months? It's really starting to be annoying... 🤬
I use Brave to play YT videos. It works as long as I don't open videos via links posted in other apps, e.g. from Telegram. Once I use a YT link forwarded from another app, it requires a YT log in and won't play the video. Solution: close brave session (delete session history if not done automatically), use new VPN location (change IP address) and search video in brave/YT directly. Maybe it's the same with Newpipe.
Thanks, will try changing VPN location
yeah, this sucks. Usually I wait for the next update and it's fixed. Seems Google is regularly changing something which breaks the newpipe playback
Surprisingly a smartphone reboot fixes the bug most of the time. 🤷♂️
