Youtube sponsorblock

I'm using sponsorblock both through the Firefox extension and yt-dlp's --sponsorblock-remove flag. Recently, yt-dlp has started having trouble: yt-dlp -vU --sponsorblock-remove sponsor ' Command-line config: ['-vU', '--sponsorblock-remove', 'sponsor', ' Encodings: locale UTF-8, fs utf-8, pref UTF-8, out utf-8, error utf-8, screen utf-8[debug] yt-dlp version 2022.10.04 [4e0511f] (zip)[debug] Python 3.10.7 (CPython 64bit) - Linux-5.19.16-200.fc36.x86_64-x86_64-with-glibc2.35 (glibc 2.35)[debug] Checking exe version: ffmpeg -bsfs[debug] Checking exe version: ffprobe -bsfs[debug] exe versions: ffmpeg 5.0.1 (setts), ffprobe 5.0.1[debug] Optional libraries: Cryptodome-3.15.0, brotli-1.0.9, certifi-2021.10.08, mutagen-1.45.1, sqlite3-2.6.0, websockets-10.1[debug] Proxy map: {}[debug] Loaded 1690 extractors[debug] Fetching release info: version: 2022.10.04, Current version: 2022.10.04yt-dlp is up to date (2022.10.04)[debug] [youtube] Extracting URL: oMcsW-myRCU: Downloading webpage[youtube] oMcsW-myRCU: Downloading android player API JSON[debug] Sort order given by extractor: quality, res, fps, hdr:12, source, vcodec:vp9.2, channels, acodec, lang, proto[debug] Formats sorted by: hasvid, ie_pref, quality, res, fps, hdr:12(7), source, vcodec:vp9.2(10), channels, acodec, lang, proto, filesize, fs_approx, tbr, vbr, abr, asr, vext, aext, hasaud, id[SponsorBlock] Fetching SponsorBlock segments[debug] SponsorBlock query: Unable to communicate with SponsorBlock API: The read operation timed out.
