Invalid status code for video page response: 429

If YouTube is returning status code 429 it means that your IP is getting ratelimited. You can get around this by using multiple IP addresses, e.g. a large IPv6 block.

Does using DNS work?

or can you please give us the option to maybe load in our own httpClient with cookies, or some way to load in cookies and simulate a logged in youTube session, I'm currently like on a indefinite 429 error however in most cases I just throw cookies at the problem and simulate myself begin logged in and still even at this moment even though lavalink is throwing back a "This IP address has been blocked by YouTube (429)." error i'm using as I type this the youtubeExplode api with a custom httpclient loaded with custom cookies to bypass the error and stream days on end.
