How does one embark on such a journey?
Comment on YouTube won't let me watch a video unless I sign in...

I’m once again asking you to host Invidious (alternative YouTube frontend) locally on your PC.

Quite easy with Docker: docs.invidious.io/installation/#docker-compose-me…

The real problem is that it’s a pain sometimes and the fact they suggest to restart every hour is even worse. Recently, I had a problem where it started to play some videos and then stopped the playback and from there it went in a reloading loop till you get something like “The media playback is broken”

IDK about invidious, but on Piped I had to add a container that grabs POtokens for the Newpipe API to use to pull videos.

For me, it’s running for months and I had to load new image updates sometimes, because YouTube likes to break it, but this was maybe once a month…

Most of the times it works but sometimes it’s just a pain to deal with the problem I mentioned. Do you restart it once in a while?

Maybe, once a month when YouTube breaks their site and a video does not load, I execute
docker compose pull docker compose stop docker compose start
to load the latest images and usually, it works again.
