I’ve noticed than most of them have stopped working including all invidious and piped instances
God I hope not, imma go check.
Edit: NewPipe still works.
First thing I did when I read this. Works for me too. I’ll have to check Invidious later.
NewPipe seems to work fine for me
LibreTube suddenly was really laggy on all instances, but the instances on browser are fine. I’m using NewPipe/Clipious for the time being.
Same with me, hope i can return soon enough.
https://piped.video is working fine now, including subscriptions listing (it even shows some privated videos!) and playing a video
It just loads indefinitely for me. I’ve tried multiple instances and I get the same result
Same here. Piped hasn’t worked for since June and even then it was shaky.
Interesting. For me it has been working fine the last months. Loads and plays now, tested 30 seconds ago.
Yes as of writing this, the instance works fine. But that’s what I’m saying, within an hour it’ll be down, or just show the thumbnails but not actually load videos.
The takehome is Google isn’t going to let Piped exist. And constantly does things to interfere which Piped can only do so much to bypass it all.
I use FreeTube which seems to still work fine but it seems to me like the browser plugin that opens YouTube links in FreeTube does not work properly sometimes
I’ve just started using freetube. I’ve noticed short periods of very low quality stream once in a while. Not sure if the periods match Ad time, tho. Do you experience those low Q periods?
Not 100% sure but I am seeing a lot more feeds not loading errors on newpipe
I think Smart Tube Next has never failed on me, I use the beta version and update it regularly (or not) so well, maybe that helps.
NewPipe and the fork Pipe pipe have been working working on my android. Can’t say anything on the piped or invidious side of things since I don’t watch videos on browser if I can avoid it.
FreeTube.
Grayjay, Newpipe and Freetube all still work
