You can still self-host Invidious. I’m doing this for 1-2 weeks without any problems. What does not work: Public instances hosted in data centers, because YouTube blocked lots of cloud IPs.

Self-hosting Invidious works for me.
The public instances are useless at the moment.
The project isn’t dead.
If you only care about a clean UI and no adds, just selt-host it. I’m doing it for a week now with no problems at all.
Google seems to have blocked all datacenter or cloud IPs from accessing YouTube.

Why this way of resolution? Why not any of the others?
- throwing one more in
- trying to rip it out
- setting the whole thing on fire
- crashing your car into it
- calling someone else to do it
