Does anyone know why? They are using IPv6 addresses so theoretically there should be infinite IPs.
Honestly YouTube should try to come up with some sort of deal to allow Piped and other third party frontends. Maybe have some sort of paid API access or some agreement to allow YouTube to use piped servers as a cache. The overhead for YouTube is large and maybe they could lower it with community help.
That would make sense(most invidious instances like to rotate proxys and use different backends aswell), but youtube from what I seen doesn’t do anything good updates.
Consider moving to LibreTube or Clipious, got annoyed as well
LibreTube stoped working for me quite while ago “log in to confirm you are not a bot” on pretty much every instance.
Because piped is broken,From what i tested.

“infinite ips” dont matter if they block your subnet lol
ipv6 blocking is usually done on a per subnet basis
Nadeko’s has been working well for me on clipious
Give that one a try
Libretube broken at this time(A update to piped increased the success rate to 50/50),Clipious only works.
I’ve tried those, both are extremely laggy when they work at all for me…
