Affected version

0.26.1

Steps to reproduce the bug

Open a video. A bar will then appear at the bottom asking whether you would like to report an error. The video itself loads without any problems, but the comments underneath are not visible. This has now happened to me with several videos. Restarting NewPipe solves the problem.

Expected behavior

No error message, comments visible

Actual behavior

Comments are displayed "empty".

Its likely theres some other breakages to come. #10808 seems to have started AB testing at the same time.

This issue should probably be pinned to prevent a flood of reports

I'm merging both and closing this as a duplicate of the other issue.
