Originally created by @Rab-C on GitHub (Dec 1, 2025).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep/issues/2205

Describe the Bug

I'm on the hosted version at cloud.karakeep.app. Any Youtube video saved as a bookmark has the first commenter listed as the video author in Karakeep. I previously seen this behaviour in Readeck, if that helps: https://codeberg.org/readeck/readeck/issues/954

Steps to Reproduce

Any bookmark that saves a Youtube video,
whether from RSS feed or manually created,
when viewed in detail view
Has the 'author' in the details panel on the right
Incorrectly substituted for the username of the first commenter

Expected Behaviour

This was actually a problem I noticed before today, so existed in the previous version as well.

Screenshots or Additional Context

No response

Device Details

No response

Exact Karakeep Version

vnightly

Have you checked the troubleshooting guide?

I have checked the troubleshooting guide and I haven't found a solution to my problem

This is now fixed (and pushed to the hosted site) by github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep@e3cc546363.

I am still occasionally seeing this problem on bookmarks of RSS-sourced YT videos, unfortunately. Here are a couple of examples from the last few days.

@Rab-C can you share some of the video links for me to try?

Sorry about the delay - in the middle of nowhere for Christmas :)

Recent examples, first 2 are the above examples re-verified by bookmarking again - same mis-attribution problem. Though interestingly the second link was attributed to a different (but still incorrect) author from the first time it was bookmarked (see above screenshot vs below). Other 2 are new examples, one from feed, one from manual bookmark.

Fascinating. I deleted the first link's bookmark. And recreated it a couple of times. And it was finally (on the 3rd or 4th bookmarking) attributed correctly.

Others still incorrect, as of posting.
