Piped/Invidious (lemmy.world)

In the lght of recent events (gloogel complaining about uBlock) I tried to investigate other available options out there. While Piped.video definitely works, it looks like it is only fluid for popular videos, and as soon as I want to watch something a little more obscure, it is basically impossible, I have infinite wheel spinning.

Have anyone here tried self hosting Piped/ Invidious, and could share a feedback about performance /usability ?

I run a private invidious instance, it's been bliss amidst all the adblock threats from YouTube. Hope it never stops working, I would quit on YouTube for good if it did.

Not doing that. Would literally give up on YouTube if they blocked all the frontends.
