Apparently my Fedi promo video is giving error messages on YouTube (shocker).
So I just logged on YouTube Studio for the first time in months to see what's going on... and found some interesting comments.
I'm not caffeinated enough to deliver zingers but I hope my response was adequate.
On the upside, I also saw a few comments of people who set up new accounts here, so yay.
As for the unplayable problem: no clue. But this is why I LOVE #PeerTube and on my website I'm using the PeerTube embed
@_elena ergh, I hope you're okay regardless. It's 100% not fun to receive these things.

@sturmsucht I would have expected nothing less
@_elena you should have complicated the video more so that its message is hidden behind being technically correct!

@anarodrigues thank you Ana. Actually I promise you this comment genuinely made me laugh out loud and increased my love and gratitude for the Fediverse even more. So all good

@sturmsucht haha yes

@donamasta some people reported it may be a problem with ad blockers. Even I cannot play it in my browser Vivaldi
️ now, it would have never been my choice to run ads on it... and I'm so curious what they may be. Of course I'm not touching a penny@_elena it worked on hardened brave browser mobile app.

@_elena You… you villain.
@d1re_w0lf The good villain against the bad villains! Go @_elena

@_elena i suspect it's not just you, someone told me they had the same issue for a 3blue1brown video.
maybe YouTube infrastructure is just crumbling. -

@_elena The video works for me: https://youtu.be/YRJHIJy5Nno?si=NCBfVpolwh6DKFso
I generally avoid yt if I can use an alternative like peertube, and I almost never interact with yt videos, but your videos are definitely worth boosting

@_elena “Elena, congratulations… [stupid rant]…”
“No! Congratulations to you, for making it a whole day without shitting your pants… Oh, no! Don’t worry babe, you’ll make it one day…
”I mean, how seriously should one take a moron? 🤪

@dermoth thank you! good to know it's playing for you: out of curiosity, which browser do you use and do you have adblock on?

@_elena this person's comment feels like actual fascists calling other people nazis because they have the option to choose.
What a time to be alive.

@_elena @anarodrigues
Your reply is great!@brunogirin thank you Bruno! I wish I had had a real zinger but alas, it's not my forte

maybe YouTube infrastructure is just crumbling.@Yuvalne I just noticed I'm having issues playing all sorts of videos on YouTube from Vivaldi, so yes, it's not just me, ouf

@d1re_w0lf The good villain against the bad villains! Go @_elena
@dermoth haha thanks!
I'm too much of a softie to be a villain, but I'd happily be THIS KIND of villain

@jsalvador indeed.
and please stop tempting me to make a new video about FEDERATED social media and what it means...

@_elena I love your video! Just have to say it again.
It works for me and I am behind a strict pi-hole and two active ad-blockers on Vivaldi.
But I got an overlay-message that roughly said "If you are having trouble watching the video report it <here>".
I could imagine that this is some kind of youtube filter to push down content they don't like to get more reach. Or an anti-ad-blocker strategy.

@dermoth thank you! good to know it's playing for you: out of curiosity, which browser do you use and do you have adblock on?
@_elena It was the yt app on Android. Usually I open videos in incognito on Chrome (Android usually, or on my computer), except from select accounts I'm familiar with. I just tested and it worked from Chrome too (incognito).

@themipper ah fascinating!!! Thank you for letting me know!
I'm also on Vivaldi (with strict "no ads, no trackers" settings) and I use NextDNS.
With NextDNS turned off I still I couldn't play the video, so I thought it might have been something to do with my Vivaldi settings...

@_elena as for Adblock, well there is no extensions in incognito, I have a pi.hole that block most ads but not yt ones.
