[Bug] Broken V1 api when adding ?type and &region

[Win-DVD]

Describe the bug
no matter what URL you use the V1 API refuses to connect when you add the ?type flag. Example is "https://invidious.snopyta.org/api/v1/trending?type=music&region=US" it refuses to work. Despite the fact that it used to.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Go to 'https://invidious.snopyta.org/api/v1/trending?type=music&region=US' (Or any of the Invidious URL's)
2. See error

Logs
Varies from server to server but it always does some variation of it.

It seems that this is the type parameter that causes this error.

[mrpaul92]

when it is going to be fixed ?

[SamantazFox]

When someone will have time to work on it :)

Sorry if it's not fast, but we're only a few people behind this project, and only a few of us do code in crystal. Some important things are already being worked on, like #1981, which, combined with a rewrite of the youtube client side of invidious, will allow the use of &region= parameters. PR #1985 is being tested and will be merged soon, which will allow a big rewrite of the channel routes (community and about tabs are broken).

IRL stuff is not helping, but we're doing our best!

I'm working on it, using youtubei API fixes this issue
