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

    Do you think I should download using yt-dlp or proxy my downloads via a running instance?

    I’m also wondering about the nature of what the IP bans are targeting. I’m on a shared network at home and concerned it might ban youtube for others. Do you know if youtube.com would fail to load videos or would this somehow only affect yt-dlp and friends?
