Describe the bug

for the last few weeks, I’ve been seeing this error appear on almost EVERY video I click on. it’s incredibly annoying and frustrating and I don’t know how long it’ll take to get it fixed. Somehow, this is only happening on my iPhone and not my Chromebook. I’ve tried clearing my safari cache, but it didn’t work. Please respond as soon as possible; any solutions could help.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Go to almost any video on inv.nadeko.net, invidious.f5.si, or invidious.nerdvpn.de (on a mobile device like a phone only) and you’ll see the issue.

I would like to see what is causing this issue but is practically impossible for me to debug this iOS/iPhone specific issue since I do not own a Mac nor an iPhone. I'll keep it open tho, maybe a later update will fix it but I'm clueless right now

thank you for replying, I really hope a later update can fix this tri-instance issue because this is really getting on my nerves. what’s worse is that just a few months ago, i was finally able to watch videos from any upload date without issues like I did on my chromebook. before, for about a year or so, i could only watch videos from, max, around 8 months ago before the date i go on the website.
