bug description

the link isn't restricted, I'm connected home internet, and I pasted the right link and everything, every single link I try to paste and download will lead to the same errors, and I've tried to download random videos on 3 different devices, and all of them wouldn't work. Cobalt used to be the ONLY no bullshit, ad free, web, multi-platform video downloader, and now it is broken as shit, and it has a new bug every time I check back. I might have to just leave cobalt and wait an eternity for a new no bullshit video downloader.

reproduction steps

  1. Go to Cobalt on anything 2. Paste any link 3. Get one of the two errors
