Videos looping infinitely in SABR requests and becoming unwatchable.

Comments unavailable to read because of “TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘endpoint’)”.

These have been a problem for like at least 2 weeks now. Before there were like 3 refreshes due to SABR and you could open up comments by spamming the button despite the error.

Now however, it’s completely unusable.

Is this the death of FreeTube? I’ve really loved this software and would hate to have to permanently return to the website with all that tracking bullshit and no offline subscriptions :(

      Chiming back in 3 hours later, just downloaded the latest release from Freetubes website, i can confirm that with my invidious instance that everything seems to be working fine. While my invidious instance is a private one, ill share it with you in the meantime until your normal setup gets back in order, shoot me a DM.

      I’m not home to verify my Freetube however, I just checked my invidious instance and can confirm that the first video I attempted to play errored.

      I am updating my Invidious instance to see if it still persists, perhaps the instances you’re using are out of date, I know invidious updates quite frequently to stay on-top of YouTube changes.

      Edit; Updating invidious appeared to resolve my errors, I can only assume the instances you’re using are out of date. I’ll check Freetube when I get home.
