Looks like the current ua doesn't work. User-Agent: curl/7.58.0 reportedly work. Maybe this should be configurable during runtime?

This is a GDPR thing, most bots will hit the "Before you continue" GDPR page at some point and then they'll never get through.

Changing user-agents is a band-aid at best, getting an YouTube API key is the only permanent solution
