The very first thing I tried was Invidious > As of September 1st 2020, invidio.us has closed down. > To see this content, please select another instance, Ok, I'll try the first alternative in their list, inv.cthd.icu > Could not get channel info. Ok, second one, invidious-us.kavin.rocks ? > Could not get channel info. Hmmm, maybe it's something to do with the sample channel, Troy Hunt? I'll try a known good channel, AvE. > Could not get channel info. Ok, maybe I should go to the front page of invidious-us.kavin.rocks and search for AvE. Ahah! There he is! I'll try clicking on his first video[0]. Well, the page appears to load but the video spins a loading spinner for a couple of minutes and then I get > The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported. I think I'll stick with Youtube. [0] https://invidious-us.kavin.rocks/watch?v=GPJTA_K-VyM https://invidious-us.kavin.rocks/watch?v=GPJTA_K-VyM

Try Piped. It works without any problem

In case of a problem, "Switch Invidious Instance" (left menu, below video) -> pick another front-end from the long list of ad-free alternatives.

I've had that problem occasionally, but I think that's a bad first impression. I've had an auto youtube -> invidious redirect enabled for about two months now and only encountered issues a few times.

Yewtu.be seems to work for me

Thinks this is the link you are looking for all the instances running: https://api.invidious.io https://api.invidious.io Not all links works, but yawtu.be is a good bet.

It's best to run it yourself. On NixOS it's a one-liner: "services.invidious.enable = true". Then it will be up at http://127.0.0.1:3000 http://127.0.0.1:3000. Blazing fast and zero annoyances.

Worked fine for me. Skytube app is the real find in this post (at least for me). Thank you!
