Could you please provide screenshots or write down the exact message?

Works fine now, probably a temporary bug. If it will happen again, then I will post the screenshot.

Okay, so it happened the 2nd time. Basically, it also drops to Invidious API and says that video is "unavailable" until next launch of video. Isn't the age restriction prompt for some reason appiled to unavailable vids as well?

I'm unable to provide a screen since it happens literally randomly.

That just sounds like you are getting IP blocked, unless you can provide a screenshot of the toast messages that are show or write them down word for word, we won't be able to tell you exactly what is going on.
