Neat, didn't notice since they perma banned me for watching without ads via freetube I believe.

Ive just been downloading videos direct with yt-dlp, but I think I'm going to extend it into a bash script which fetches the RSS of the channels I want, downloads them if they haven't been downloaded, and then deletes them after they have been watched and after a certain amount of time has passed, or if I have marked them for deletion.

It's your IPv6. If you change to IPv4-only they do not ban. You can check with ip addr if it shows v6 addresses. You then can disable them by various means. Had to do the same to reeable freetube and yt-dlp.

Just wanted to say this didn't work for me.. no ipv6 addresses shown.
