When I use a browser proxy I'm usually able to watch 3/4 videos before "we've changed some things due to your lack of loggin in" which then blocks me from watching age gated content. I just get a new node connection after that. It really does fuck over playlist watching or music listening, my boyfriend gets pissed when we're watching a video and that happens and interrupts it (which is funny because he doesn't have adblocks enabled on his iphone or roku, lol)
Honestly, I told myself if I'm unable to watch YT using blockers or without scanning my gov ID, I'm going cold turkey.
HOWEVER I also recently learned about yt-dlp, so perhaps there's one option left.
