I use Freetube, but it's currently not playing any videos for me.
Always use the up-to-date version.
Whenever there's consistent playback issues there's usually an update on the horizon. Just have to be patient.
ETA: I'm watching videos on
Freetuberight now. It's working just fine.I have 3 PCs running endeavouros, the other 2 updated freetube fine, but my main one has issues, even after uninstalling/reinstalling/updating to beta. I can open videos externally with mpv, but nothing will play on freetube itself.
Wish I could help you figure that out, but I'm a total linux noob. The EndeavourOS forums would be a good place to start though.
