Neither newpipe nor libretube work for me anymore for a while now. Is there an alternative?

Edit: when using my vpn it is blocked. Without von it works fine

I almost thought you were that bot that changes youtube links to invidious ones, lol.

Yeah, those tend to be good (well, tux.pizza is a bit of an exception, it shows the error that the others fixed). It's a little annoying that a lot of the invidious instances that work won't show up when you do the "switch instance" thing on an instance that doesn't work, but it makes a bit of sense, not wanting to get overwhelmed, or trying to not get too noticed.

In most cases it's just too annoying of a process to get on the list. But I understand why the invidious team prefers to vet instances rather then have something like a beacon system that auto populates all consenting instances.
