My invidious has stopped working today (in the UK)… all the videos fail to load and the fixes (like turning on video proxy) do not fix it… I’ve noticed a few piped and invidious instances having similar issues.
Probably related to the issues I began having yesterday with Revanced- suddenly, videos started to infinitely buffer after around 1 minute of playing. I ended up having to update + reinstall Revanced entirely. Looking at the Revanced subreddit it seems more and more users have started getting affected by the same issue these past few weeks.

Google’s definitely doing something.
I also did this, this morning and it seemed to fix it. If it becomes impossible to block ads I guess we all just stop watching YouTube…?
google overestimates how much I like YouTube and how much I hate ads and google
Unfortunately, they do not care. They don’t want people watching youtube, they want people watching ads.
Good to know this isn’t just me, I updated and reinstalled without resorting to forums, and it solved the issue for me too.
I am not a piped user so I am not 100% updated but as far as I know, Google is blocking the various piped instances by their IP
It happens to me sometimes but you can hop instances and usually it ends up working
