minus-squareRetropunk64@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up18arrow-down1·9 days agoI watch YouTube all the time over Mullvad. It doesn’t let me watch on the website without signing in tho.
minus-squaretehWrapper@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·9 days agoIf your going to sign in you might aswell turn off the vpn
minus-squareRetropunk64@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·9 days agoYeah, that’s why I don’t sign in. 😂 I mostly just use Freetube.
minus-squarebenignintervention@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·9 days agoI got a sign in prompt over my proton vpn the other day. Refreshed and it was gone
minus-squareRetropunk64@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·9 days agoHuh, I literally can’t use YouTube because it always wants me to sign in.
minus-squarebenignintervention@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 days agoI kind of suspect that proton pays a premium to get their IPs whitelisted
minus-squareERROR: Earth.exe has crashed@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·9 days agoI think its because they have like 11000 servers, much more than Mullvad or IVPN.
minus-squarekusivittula@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·9 days agoit’s an absolute pain in the ass with mullvad. only a few servers like ireland, greece and nigeria work.
minus-squareRetropunk64@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·9 days agoHuh, I’ll keep that in mind. Usually I just say fuck YouTube and go about my business. 😂

minus-squareNeatoBuilds@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·9 days agoI got that same prompt in my house ip now, can’t use youtube on my TV or anything, I guess it detected my plex server downloading videos since I usually watch from there
