YouTube has litterally attacked it by blacklisting all know cloud IPs world wide when tmaccessing YouTube.
Self-hosting is the only reliable way. Sometimes, YouTube breaks something, but after a few hours, Invidious pushes a fix…
But if you target the latest tag of all relevant images, itms just:
docker compose pull; docker compose down; docker compose up
I think, there is usually 1080p with 30fps and with 60fps. So, they are probably selling you 30 more frames per second… for $13…
13 per month. That’s over 100 per year. Did not expect it to be that expensive.
Friendly reminder: If you know how to use Docker, you can self host Invidious on your PC and have an experience better tgan YouTube for free.
If you are a little experienced and know how to deal with Docker, you could self-host Invidious yourself on your local PC or laptop. Works fine for me for multiple months.
You’d be still using the videos of YouTube, but without their ad-flooded UI.

Dammit, don’t ruin it!!11 The “of” is silent 😉
Is it thread safe?

Via GitHub, you can find their Matrix group where they communicate about all this.
You can still self-host Invidious. I’m doing this for 1-2 weeks without any problems. What does not work: Public instances hosted in data centers, because YouTube blocked lots of cloud IPs.
Currently, it is recovering from attacks from Google. Only self-hosting works reliably at the moment…
Self-hosting Invidious works for me.
The public instances are useless at the moment.
The project isn’t dead.
If you only care about a clean UI and no adds, just selt-host it. I’m doing it for a week now with no problems at all.
Google seems to have blocked all datacenter or cloud IPs from accessing YouTube.
Starting a new week on Monday, wondering how they f up tge experience on that web site this time…
Why this way of resolution? Why not any of the others?
If you watch 43 videos per day on every day, yes…
Some of us go to work or school or whatever and can’t therefore do that every single day, especially not when the videos are longer…
