Youtube blocking Linux users?

Just wondering if anyone is experiencing this. I tried different browsers, vanilla Chrome with no ad blockers and it is giving an indefinite hang.

When I try in a virtual machine running windows, no problems.

Edit: Tried on other machines and it is working now.

It's a DNS issue. www.youtube.com is resolving to 0.0.0.0
I believe it has to do with DNSSEC validation, but haven't dug deep enough to find the actual problem. I just changed my DNS resolver to a static vanilla 9.9.9.9 or 9.9.9.11 Quad9 address and all is well.
