Problem

It seems like YouTube has started rolling out an update that blocks watching videos unless signed in. The message shown is 'Sign in to confirm you’re not a bot'.

For more details, see okTurtles/okturtles.org#77.

Solution

Find an alternative video host to use on embeds and for general promotion (ideally, one that also is privacy-friendly). I'm not proposing getting rid of YouTube entirely, but just not using it as the main video host (i.e., I see no reason not to syndicate content to YouTube).
