I received the following error message: ERROR: Unable to download webpage: HTTP Error 429: Too Many Requests (caused by HTTPError()); please report this issue on https://yt-dl.org/bug . Make sure you are using the latest version; see https://yt-dl.org/update on how to update. Be sure to call youtube-dl with the --verbose flag and include its complete output.

Hello, ~Please don't remove the issue template.~ This errors means that the server was (temporarily?) blacklisted by the video website (Youtube ?) because it made too many requests. There is nothing we can do on our end.

Edit: Just noticed this was reported in alltube-firefox so there is no issue template. But this is not really an add-on issue.
