The people who created this webring are associated with https://artemislena.eu/, which is a very popular alternative frontend/privacy site here on Hexbear and the rest of the fediverse. Be sure to take a look at the webring and add your own if you wish.

I'd also like to thank everyone who helped / are making the links here static and slick. Good job! bridget-pride bridget-vibe

Awesome!

I'm a little sad that yt.artemislena.eu never works anymore (even when the backend is up). Of course most of the invidious instances don't work anymore after a big youtube crackdown. But ggtyler.dev usually still works great (cal1.iv.ggtyler.dev and pol1.iv.ggtyler.dev) and they are outspoken trans allies too displaying the text: "Also, 🏳️‍⚧️ trans rights :)" appearing above every single youtube video.

Anyway, it would be so damn cool if webrings made a real comeback.

Apparently she just got it back online? Not sure

When I go there, it still says

"502 Bad Gateway. The backend of this service is currently down, but it will probably be up again soon."

But yeah, hopefully it will be soon, so I'll keep checking. We need more invidious instances, especially now when almost all the youtube frontends got wiped out.
