Today most Invidious instances are experiencing very harsh ip address rate limiting, it is becoming very very hard to watch yt videos through

    For FYI:

    Install Freetube

    Install LibRedirect on FF.

    On settings point it to send YT links to Freetube.

    I used Tab Wrangler to auto close tabs, so this will close tabs that are created after whatever time when pushing YT links, I have that set to a minute.

    I am lazy and use KDEConnect, to my PC connected TV to send links. Like a remote.

    Push links from any client, I use NewPipe. As it also has my channel subscriptions.

    Enjoy, until Indivious is fixed. Could use other services but Freetube is pretty good and fast. Takes your own subscriptions too. Pipe like some others use JS, which I avoid and you have a lot of control over Freetube. This is easy to revert once everything his working.
