Ah so its still an issue. First reported in https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube/issues/2041 but was closed due to inactivity of the OP

I mean, his repro is "somewhat complicated", but I guess I get that after 1y he sort of "didn't bother retrying" 😅

I mean - I am not "exactly trying" to arrive to this state either. But at least I'll be able to repro it quite easily.
