Description
It seems that FreeTube is connecting to the Invidious instance using only IPv4 address by default instead of trying IPv6 by default then fallback to IPv4 if it didn't work.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by tracing FreeTube's Invidious connection path and its address-family handling. Reproduce the problem on an IPv6-only network, then verify that IPv6 is attempted before IPv4 fallback and that the connection succeeds.
