If you check their GitHub, there is an open issue and a very simple fix - enable "Use HLS" in settings. It's as simple as that
Thanks for the post. Comments hasn't been loading for like months. Just updated and it's fixed.
Why on earth would you want YouTube comments. That's the best thing about this, switching them off.
Jokes aside, happy for you that something you are using is working again.
Sometimes they're useful. I was watching a tier list of swimming caps and the comments happened to ask decent questions and the author was answering them politely.
Are they going to update it in the main f droid repo now ? Otherwise whatever .
Yes but i'm not interested as fdroid has many features that i like for ex: conforming the builds, inclusion policy, stopping updates if something is changed, removing proprietary builds etc obtainium is just a tool to make getting apps from git or anywhere else easy and not at all as safe ir useful as fdroid for me .
This is actually pretty based and reasonable, even though the trust issue is not solved but shifted. Take my upvote kind sir.
Thank you here take mine .
Edit : Hey i just rememebered that fdroid now lets devs also check the files they upload are the same that are pushed by the dev so the trust issue is kinda solved as now the dev and fdroid has to be corrupt instead of one and this is the maximum safety we can attain unless we read and built from the source of every app we use which no one do .
If you're primarily downloading videos, there's a much better open-source app for that called tydlnis, here: https://ytdlnis.com
If you're using it to just browse, there probably is, but I can't help you there.
