SUMMARY

This might not be a bug, but I'm letting you know in case it is. On my machine, none of the youtube video sources that I've tried actually work, which is a handful of the suggested invidious and piped sources. Only one of them managed to actually get me a video listing at all, but attempting to access any video would get me a playback error. All the others said no videos found.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Install plasmatube via flathub
2. Try out a few of the suggested sources for accessing youtube

OBSERVED RESULT

It seems like all sources, at least those I tried, don't work.

EXPECTED RESULT

I'm not sure, I guess it could be the case that they simply all went down on the server side. But if this is a client bug then I hope this report is useful.
