I’m betting these wont work on a Roku Tv huh? Kiddo likes putting music videos for shapes and beats but the constant POLITICAL ads are driving me nuts.
You can try this one https://github.com/iBicha/playlet
Thats awesome! Looks like it runs off of Invidious and they're having issues right now. I’ll check back in on it and hopefully they can get back up and running again!
Some instances like inv.nadeko.net still work pretty well
You can also host your own instance at home on a small server or a VPS. You can optionally put it behind a VPN using Gluetun.
Oh nice, thanks again! I started testing the instances in the app but they were failing at pulling the videos during the tests. The instance you mentioned looks to be working!
I’m not familiar with using a VPS, I’ll have to look into that. i have pihole running on a mac mini with my router using that for dns and I’m an avid user of ProtonVPN.
You can easily deploy Invidious on that Mac as well. Just use Docker, Invidious has pretty good documentation for that: https://docs.invidious.io/installation/#docker-compose-method-production
I used to host Invidious like that on a Mac for almost a year, it worked flawlessly
That is awesome. I’ll see if i can give that a go!
