Can confirm, the URL is wrong: http://youtube.local/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBa659QWEk1AI4Tg--mrJ2A/None - It happens when using one of the sort options Sort by oldest or Sort by views, When using the default Sorted by newest it is correct

I believe this is a separate issue, in this case the avatar is missing but the channel isn't none. The issue seems to be that youtube-local fails to fetch data from yt3.googleusercontent.com links. I "fixed" it on my end by removing the start of these links and prepending https://yt3.ggpht.com, the URL used for avatars on comments.
