Too many bots.

My US East Coast VPS firewall logs are full of Russian and Ukrainian IPs. They are more numerous than Chinese, even.

I'm not sure the people behind them are all Russian and Ukrainian, though. My guess RU/UA IPs are just cheaper and easier to obtain by malicious actors.

AFAIK you better be using VPN living in Russia, anyway. Doesn't Russian govt block a ton of stuff from their side?

There's a whitelist option. Just read the docs, really, lastgenre is very configurable.

not exactly for a "layperson", to be honest, but easy enough for someone familiar with a command line

I assume lastgenre with canonicalization[0] enabled is what you need, along with count=1 if multiple genres are an issue.

I believe Russians have something to say on that, though.

Are there alternate YouTube frontends (or apps) that emulate Cobalt?

Looks like stable API like that is a perfect candidate for usage in an open source app that replaces the official one.

There's quite a lot of pure interactive fiction comps, and a lot of viable authoring systems: https://www.ifwiki.org
