Yes. The first number didn’t work so I refunded it but it worked on the 2nd try.



Mainly to avoid using YouTube and the mess of that interface. All i need is a chronoligical feed of the channels I like. I’m not overly concerned that they can associate my IP with some viewing activity. As long as there are multiple people in the household using YouTube, it’s not a given they know who’s watching what. Also it’s much easier to have multiple invidious profiles and use them with Firefox containers than it is to have multiple YouTube accounts and switch between them.

Running a remote instance without some sort of IP rotation became infeasible. I’ve been running it locally since google started actively trying to kill invidious. The only reason that still works is because they want to avoid collateral damage that could affect other people in the household.


Absolutely this. It is becoming increasingly rare to find a game that doesn’t work in linux (excluding stupid copy protection/anti-cheat implementations). We haven’t reached the works-out-of-the-box stage but the combination of proton-ge/wine-ge with lutris or heroic provides a solid alternative to games not on steam.


“The report detailed how the user managed to leak DNS queries when disabling and enabling VPN while having “Block connections without VPN” on.”

Not to diminish the severity of the issue but I can’t imagine this being the factor that pushes the average person to ios over android.
