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'd like to know if any of these frontends work with Mullvad VPN, because all the Mullvad servers I've tried have been blocked. Even on youtube.com I'm getting throttled to the point where all videos are 360p. Ridiculous, but I'm not turning my VPN off just for YouTube videos.

    Yeah, same here! I have to turn off Mullvad when watching FreeTube which is definitely annoying.

    Yeah, I was also using FreeTube when Mullvad got blocked. Mullvad's South African servers worked for me for a while but they're now blocked too, and I've tried a bunch of countries and all blocked. Annoyingly even yt-dlp is blocked with Mullvad on now, so I can't even use that to watch YouTube.
