   Lazyweb, anyone know a working bypass for the Twitch "Your browser is not currently supported" login wall?

     @thekhanj The nag doesn't seem to be user-agent-based. It's probably doing some browser fingerprinting via malicious javascript.

     @dalias Wouldn't using one of these plugins to change user-agent http header to something else work?🫣

     @jn Yeah that's completely orthoginal. You can watch stuff just fine not-logged-in in the browser, but if you want to participate in someone's chat or do various other social things, you generally need to be logged in, and yt-dlp does nothing for that.

     @dalias mpv + youtube-dl/yt-dlp works ok, in my experience
