        Because it’s reliant on special servers. Just use Freetube or Newpipe, both handle the video extraction locally.

      That’s has to do with the backend server that’ve been chosen at the preference page. Servers becomes unavailable all the time, and the frontend don’t change a server when it happens. Just choose a few servers that works well and you trust, and switch back and forth when needed.
