Title says it all. Got the message of three remaining videos and then it locked.

I am using FireFox

Edit: Apparently, it was caused by me being logged into YouTube. But I would really like to be. Because that's where all my subscriptions are. If anyone knows of a way to have it both ways, please let me know.

Edit' : It was my Ghostery extension that was causing ruckus. I don't really like the idea of having to switch it off but at least it's nice to know the cause. Anyway, everything is working now. Even when I am logged in ^^

Also to anyone reading this, keep clearing your cache and update in UBlock Origin!

Freetube ftw

I want to use it but does it support subscriptions/ accounts? I have a lot of subs and I don’t wanna resub manually to all of them :(

EDIT: You absolutely can:

  1. Go to https://takeout.google.com/ (login if needed)
  2. Select only YouTube > All YouTube data > Deselect all > Select only Subs
  3. Download the takeout file and extract the .csv
  4. In Freetube, go to Settings > Data Settings > Import subs and click on the .csv
  5. Enjoy!

Yes, I just started with it and had to look this up. You can create different users too. To imprort subs you'll have to do a Google Takeout export, then import that CSV under Settings>Data Settings.

The FAQ has a nice step by step guide.

finally downloaded the freetube .deb for my distro, works like charm. Damn me why I took so long :)
