Comment on YouTube ads are about to get even longer and they’ll be unskippable
hietsu@sopuli.xyz 1 day agoIs it easily selfhostable again? I used to have it on my private server but eventually it ate some shit and the configuration of different helpers became too much of a burden.

I guess so? If you follow the docs its pretty easy. Although Invidious is now broken due to recent youtube changes, that always happens tho. Cat and mouse game

Yeah I really needed it tonight and it was a major disappointment that all of the public instances are broken with no ETA on being fixed. As I mentioned in another thread, I love invidious, I’m deeply grateful to the devs an those who run the public instances, I deeply mourn piped, but I fear for invidious’ future. It already seems like a once much more thriving community has been struggling to keep going. Like, it was sad to see ggtyler leave the scene, though I get why and can’t blame him.
I know it’s self hostable of course but I don’t think most people are willing to do that, tbh I’m not even sure I am. But I guess I’d have no other choice if the public instances all went kaput because I will not be using that disgusting site youtube and giving them more traffic. I’d be too bitter to be able to enjoy or even focus on any of the videos.
