For some time, trying to watch videos on Invidious or Freetube has been a pain. It has been oscillating day by day but now I get like 3 seconds of video for 8 seconds of loading time
Some days ago I saw a notice on top of the webpage in some Invidious instances stating something like “Youtube is trying to impede frontends”
Today i tried going to youtube.com and enabling some requests on uBO and videos loading freakin’ fast
Is anyone getting the same?
damn, even with seeing the bot around here i forgot to try Piped these days
anyway, i’ve found a solution - i had “proxy videos through Invidious” turned on on Freetube (which was redundant since i’m behind a VPN). i’ve unchecked it and things seem fime now
still, thank you
