YouTube 153 Error

[barongi]

Wire Desktop 3.40.5233 - Windows

This has been going on for quite a while now. When I share a YouTube link I get a 153 error. Also, if my link has a timestamp, the timestamp only works if the link text is clicked, not the "Watch video on YouTube"- link in the error video.

yes -- it's been a problem for many months now probably around 6 - previews of other links no longer function at all (including rumble bitchute dailymotion etc.etc.) -- in fact youtube seems to be the only site that wire app attempts to make a preview for but results in this this error 153 - the problem started after an update - wire used to preview links properly and you could play video sites inside the app
