There are several way, honestly. For Android, there's NewPipe. The app itself fetches the YouTube data. For PC, there are similar applications that do the same such FreeTube. Those are the solutions I recommend.
If you're one of those, you can also host your own Invidious and/or Piped instances. But I like NewPipe and FeeTube better.
I've used freetube for a while and it seems like it's expierencing the same issues since I've been getting a lot of error messages lately.
FreeTube also is based on Invidious instances, changing the instance may work, but better to set the SMplayer as extern player, then you can open the Video in this player which works almost always.
Thank you for the tip. Hopefully that'll fix the issues I've been having.
Yes, if you find a workng Invidious instance it's ok, but if not, FreeTube without SMplayer is useless.
Really? It's been working just fine for me.
