Yes, I was just about to write to anxdpanic to discuss the same thing.
My Subscriptions was fixed in one of the updates (with an RSS fix if I remember correctly?).
But Watched Later continues to work for me - it's always been working, I use it daily.
I did notice a few non Kodi related issues over the past few weeks - clicking Add to Watch Later on a YouTube video that was embedded on a webpage has been (and is still is) a bit flakely sometimes, so I assumed that was also API related. But I just needed to click through to YouTube itself and Add to Watch Later there.
I would then view the video later in Kodi from the YouTube Watch Later list the same as I have always done.
I'm not sure if it is relevant, but I'll add that I'm still using my original API keys that I setup years and years ago, and I use YouTube, the Kodi Addon, and the Watch Later functionality daily.
So I looked at the git diffs and unfortunately the beta-releases are not tagged in the git repo, so it's not possible to see what changed between beta2 and beta3 (obviously a suggestion is to always tag releases that other users will download and report bugs on...)
However just looking at the 6.8.8 (stable) vs latest diff, the big change was the use of dual youtube-APIs was ripped out, it seemed they were using a now deprecated Youtube "TVAPI" to get subscriptions for example and switched to getting the subscriptions some other way.
Additionally, a big chunk of code was ripped out that fetched a watch later playlist id. Seems it wasn't replaced by anything. My guess is this is one of the beta2 => beta3 diffs. I don't know anything about the Kodi or plugin code in general, but a wild guess is that they maybe thought this could go as "everybody uses the same default watch later playlist id". Which, as it turns out, might have been a wrong assumption and it will vary so some users can not fetch WL anymore.
The github Issues tracker does have this Watch Later bug filed by multiple users, for example:
https://github.com/anxdpanic/plugin.vide.../issues/66
but the developer does not seem to know what goes wrong.
All I can say is that it worked perfectly fine until the beta3 change. So I would just revert that change in the meantime as it seems nobody complained about it before...
The Github tracker is probably much better than this forum btw as the developer does not participate here so it's just a bunch of guesswork.
