is there any way to differentiate between premium members only-bs and everything else right within feed (https://inv.nadeko.net/feed/subscriptions)?

due to recent changes I'm getting ton of such videos in my feed and the time is totaly wasted as such videos in the feed looks like playable, but they are not. in fact, they are pointless to scrape, as invidious will never be able to play them.

steps to reproduce:

  1. play: https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=bPwVcafbPKE
  2. in quick fashion, locate the 4th row and read out the error message

  3. done, wasted click to open the video and wasted 15 seconds of average human life span

possible solutions:

  1. filter out premium-bs from feed completely
  2. if not possible, than at least somehow differentiate such videos from the rest (putting up some "P" or "×" icon like: ...)

or in other words, to bind that error:

Join this channel to get access to members-only content like this video, and other exclusive perks.

to some visual cue that would sit on https://inv.nadeko.net/feed/subscriptions
