Seems like there was some proto generation changed in 10.0.4 -> 10.0.5 of youtubei.js dependency: LuanRT/YouTube.js@94bc596

Then two weeks ago in 8979b7a it looks to me like @moisout somehow used code from those generated files, but the code does not seem to be exported by the dependency. I have no idea how this crazy ts/js build world works, but I'll dig on to see if I can get to the root problem here.

Also later in 44606cf some fixes were made to import stuff at runtime.

@gareins Thanks a lot for your reply!!!

I have now managed to reproduce this. I had removed the code changes in last two commits and comments on videos now load and I get this same match error. Just to paste the whole error from the instance:

Will look into it now.
