I confirmed manually the channel page still works, and has og:url in its source.

As for expectations, I don't feel the need this needs filled in, of course I would expect no exception and a returned value.

YouTube sometimes tends to return broken responses. Does the issue persist after some time?

MistressPlague commented 4 months ago

It does. I tested.

Tyrrrz commented 4 months ago

I couldn't reproduce the issue with the channel ID you provided

Tyrrrz commented 3 months ago

Closing as I can't reproduce and thus investigate.
