Zorin OS, which was the second distro I ever tried, I hated how outdated their repos were since they were using an older Ubuntu LTS repository for packages. It was quite painful to install software that would otherwise have worked out-of-the-box on Ubuntu. I hope this is no longer the case today.

    Hey, thanks for the message! I've fixed the issue already, which was caused by a regression in one of my changes. To prevent this from happening in the future, I've added unit tests for the same. Sorry for the inconvenience caused!

    I haven't seen any changes from YouTube recently, the ways we fetch age restricted content still seem to work for most videos. However, this method may not work for all videos as YouTube has different levels of age restrictions afaict. I've seen very few videos fall under that category personally.

    If anything were to change in the future, I may consider implementing something similar to what this extension does (or use their API) in Piped.

    I think it is quite unlikely for YouTube to implement a DRM for watching videos. In anyways, we will keep fighting collaboratively as long as we can.

    The most likely way YouTube probably will affect us currently is if they decide to log in wall their platform like how Twitter did.
