The video stopped playing back and then kept oscillating continuously between saying that "YouTube forces us to wait for ('two seconds' or 'one second') before continuing playback." After the "one second" notice, it goes back to two seconds and it keeps oscillating forever. This is the first time I've ever seen this notice and am wondering who else here may have been experiencing this recently.

I've been having this for a fair few days now. I don't have the same issue with NewPipe so have been using that till this gets fixed. It's been reported here #2761

Pipepipe asks for fewer permissions and has more services by default. Another user got me to switch recently.
