I'm sure i've heard this before, but yt-dlp skips them fine.
Yt-Dlp has been breaking recently and requiring cookies to be entered in order to work at all.
I've never seen a company quadruple dip on something before. It's like surviving enshittification and then still continuing to push for further revenues.
It has been breaking a lot lately and it’s really sad. I pretty much pull all of my content off of YouTube now through yt-dlp so once that goes, im pretty much entirely YouTube free. I absolutely refuse to use it in the state it’s in now and really wish more creators would offer content on other platforms. Yt-dip is amazing and great but shouldn’t be the permanent solution.
Isn’t that what Nebula/CuriosityStream is? All my favorite YouTubers promote it, though the caveat is you have to pay but I think the money actually goes to the creators (and they put bonus content on it like a patreon).
