Is 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.

    oh yeah, reddit even banned the sub for it, r/invidious. What fuckin' bullshit is that, you know?
