Invidious
Its very funny to me that I only learned about Invidious recently because youtube is trying to take it down. I will never open youtube ever again. Ive been using addblock/tracking blockers for a decade at this point but now I don't even have to look at their shitty website with its ever degrading interface.
You can't stop the signal. Fuck you Google.
You're viewing a single thread.
Haha. Dito
Never heard of it before till now
I truly don't know what they think is going to happen. Its an open source, endlessly clonable piece of software. They killed Youtube Vanced and within a week Revanced popped up.
I'm assuming Google istrying to use fear tactics as there is zero legal ground. If they require a Google account for YouTube access, then Invidious would be in trouble. But this would also cut into the view count and URLs tougher to sell ad's with less views.
Forcing a google account would be wild but apparently Reddit is blocking access to the site on mobile so I wouldn't be that surprised. Then again, how greedy can these companies be. Google already has chrome which most people use and harvests all your fuckin data. Just leave the like 3% of us alone.
I've learned to never rule anything out for Corps when money is involved, but you're soo correct. They are capitalizing on a vast majority of internet usage, hopefully that hasn't made em hungry for the last few more tech literate folks online.
