It's questionable for how long that will be the case. The web frontends break often as YT changes, sometimes to intentionally prevent their usage. Piped has been showing the message "Sign in to confirm that you're not a bot" for months now[1].
I've seen similar issues with yt-dlp, though they've been temporary so far, and the team is quicker to work around them. But it's only a matter of time until YT decides this is enough of a nuisance for them and blocks these completely. It would be trivial to do so, and workarounds could be very annoying to impossible.
