I'm not any sort of programmer, just somebody who uses kodi and the youtube addon to watch youtube on the TV. I don't even sign in to it. I just use the search and watch what I want from what that returns. I'm not really interested in doing much else with it.
But now even that basic functionality is broken, there seems to be no way to watch youtube any more with Kodi. I couldn't follow any of the suggested fixes because it won't let me uninstall it. It says something about other addons depending on it and refuses to uninstall. Even if I could do that, I'm not sure I know enough to be able to figure out what to do. I don't know much about the stuff that is described in this thread. I just use it, I don't understand all the programming stuff.
That's why I ask about this being forked and fixed. There must be lots of people like me that can't fix this. And don't understand how.
Have you tried the quick fix right above your post (post # 3111). Install the zip file, log out and back in again. During login, 2 codes will be generated. Insert each code @ youtube.com/activate. The entire process takes less than 5 minutes and no programming is required. You may need a second computer to access youtube.com/activate depending on the operating system you are running.
