CloudTube (YouTube Frontend)

If invidious does not work anymore is because ofr two main reasons:

  1. Youtube changes the code of their website, so Invidious cannot “read” parts of the website. To fix that simply keep your ynh invidious updated. To do that you can remove and reinstall it or do sudo yunohost app upgrade invidious -u https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/invidious_ynh/tree/testing --force - and it should pull the latest invidious from the invidious github.

  2. Youtube blocks your server IP for trying to access youtube.com too many times. In essence it throws a captcha at the server and the server cannot bypass it. This can be solved with anti-captcha.com. More details here documentation/How-to-setup-Anti-Captcha.md at master · iv-org/documentation · GitHub

We are doing both of these and our https://ytb.trom.tf ynh invidious works perfectly fine.
