Another reason to ditch corporate pages and embrace freedom.
Have they added safety features like denying follows yet?
Also, they really need to create apps for all platforms, this would increase their popularity and usability.

Sadly the amount and variance of videos on peertube pales in comparison to youtube. I need my Sherlock Holmes audio books 😩
I really wish more youtube producers would cross post to other platforms.
Do you know of an instance that is able to cover all their expenses with ads?
I want a peer tube instance with ads because I want to make sure my uploaded data is durable long-term
Why not just pay them? I feel like fedi is based more on that than ads, a lot of us on fedi hate ads.
Because that doesn’t sound sustainable
How is it different to other fedi projects/instances surviving off of donations?
Most will likely block the adverts anyway, so I fail to see how it’ll make money that way.
honestly i know there’s other frontends still working but i’m just gonna say this… fuck youtube
i swear so many things i’ve heard about it makes me think youtube is falling off and i fear it would probably die somewhere in the future
Many videos require a login now, due to weird age restrictions. YouTube is becoming increasingly useless.
Not only invidious I guess, they want the user to login when too many videos has been watched on an IP address. So also web browsers on a VPN for example
Youtube is blocking large/public instances of Invidious, not all instances.
Can we please not do the click bait/rage bait thing here?
This is saddening.
I know the invidious contributors have been working on this over the last few months. Looks like they finally got there only to have youtube slam the door. That’s a real gut punch.
I already switched to running an instance at home instead of my VPS, so this news doesn’t change much for me personally but it’s a demonstration that youtube is actively seeking to block the project.
As with reddit / lemmy, I doubt a viable alternative will emerge until youtube has become well and truly offensive.
Enshittification is progressing…
I’d rather download each video manually via yt-dlp (previously youtube-dl) than creating and using a google acoount to watch it.
Yt-fzf is still an option if you’re interested.
