I watch YouTube through newpipe, and recently tried pipepipe too. They work great, but lately I have been blocked on several occasions with a message that either says "content unavailable" or "your IP has been blocked by YouTube". I usually use a VPN which has helped but tried it today and still got this message :/

Finally changing the location on the VPN seemed to work. But seriously wtf is going on?

I asked you to give me an example of some content that only exist on YT. Bear in mind, it has to be some content that you need, and can't find anywhere else. There are, obviously some creators that post only on YT, but what they post about, you can find lots of other places. There's no real knowledge that you can only find on YT... But feel free to give me an example (that's just 1 example I ask for), and that's too much for you.

I rest my case! ;-)
