I really hope the answer is "yes," but gosh-darned if I can find one. The FreeTube app still works as long as my VPN is off, but as for Invidious . . . (also, sorry if this has already been covered earlier).

EDIT: Ok, well now it looks like I can get FreeTube to work with some Mullvad locations but not others . . .

I don't know. My ISP doesn't know. And I won't bother interacting with Google's non-existing support.

My solution is moving away from YouTube whenever possible, for instance subscripting to podcast instead when a creator has a podcast with the same content.

Luckily most casts are just an RSS feed so you do not need an special tooling. It is a real shame many are putting their content behind walls like Spotify.

Yes, but many YouTube channels don't have a RSS podcast equivalent. YouTube is somewhat of a walled garden, like Spotify is.

No. This is no help if YouTube blocks your IP range. And it's not a podcast feed.
