Hello,
Sad news for everyone. YouTube/Google has patched the latest workaround that we had in order to restore the video playback functionality.
Right now we have no other solutions/fixes. You may be able to get Invidious working on residential IP addresses (like at home) but on datacenter IP addresses Invidious won’t work anymore.
If you are interested to install Invidious at home, we remind you that we have a guide for that here: https://docs.invidious.io/installation/..
This is not the death of this project. We will still try to find new solutions, but this might take time, months probably.
I have updated the public instance list in order to reflect on the working public instances: https://instances.invidious.io. Please don’t abuse them since the number is really low.
Youtube is now big enough for not caring about the network effect.
Capitalism is just fucked 🤷🏻🏴☠️
What? No, the network effect is why they have a dominant position. The network effect comes from their user base.
Enshittification is how platforms die, it’s not a winning business model, it’s just an outworking of capitalism’s contradictions.
The way you wrote that shows you don’t understand the principles at all.
I could explain further but you’d have to express interest.
