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.
Feel free to discuss this politely on Matrix or IRC.
And while we're at it, stop calling them 'content creators'
What is the alternative name for someone who creates content for a platform?
Well, we start by referring ta work not as "content", but as what it actually is. Then work from there. For instance, one could ostensibly call Ahoy a filmmaker or a documentary maker.
... Which is a type of content.
There's a lot of content that doesn't fit neatly into a category though, because it was made by someone turning on a camera and making a video without worrying about any commercial concerns. So calling someone like that a creator is a catch all term for anyone making content for a platform.
Why? What else would we call them?
To answer the "why", it's because the word "content" is kinda meaningless. Instead of making films, documentaries, talk shows, reference guides, cartoons... it's all just this generic "content" slop that's just there to feed the machine
What a strange opinion.
Entertainers. Show women/men.
Showman/woman refers to a pretty specific type of performer, I.E someone who is on stage typically.
Entertainer isn't a label I'd necessarily apply to educational content, for example.
Then call them educators, or presenters... teachers, maybe, depending on the nature of their work
Yes it's much better to use
"comedians/teachers/musicians/educators/entertianers/phonereviewers/sportscommenters/singers/journalists/programmers/documenters/analysts/lawyers/lockpickers/politicians/presenters/trolls"
... than...
"content creators".
What do you have against creators as a label? I don't really see these difference myself.
Right. Call them youtubers! Wait...
