sorta unrelated but... has anyone else noticed the youtube app simply wont play videos sometimes? shorts always work, but full length just pause at the start and if i unpause it just stops immediately, cant get it out of that state even with app reset/uninstall/cache clear (nig also applies to downloaded videos). I contacted youtube and they couldnt figure it out. forced me to unsubscribe for a while. Also note: using a regular browser to youtube does always work.
