Not sure, how long Google is at it, it may just be new to me, but today the wife googled for something, and she couldn’t get there as the response was “can not connect”. “Fix the internet NOW!”, was my order.

Analysing the link on Google’s page, it displayed the link as https://www.example.com/, but it actually goes to https://googleadservices.com/?blabla, which is blocked by our DNS, therefore the error.

Displaying one link, but going to another is misleading, lying, tactics of phishers and scammers, IMO.

Is this new, or is it just me, who never clicks on the first result of a Google search?

    Yeah :) piped self-hosting !

    However, we have to wait until they merge the poToken and visitor data issue. Something invidious has already implemented.

    Still it’s very strange you have to restart your container every hour :/ I’m sure I’m to stupid to understand the backend/code to make any sense out of it, but piped instances never had to restart anything.

      Cool!

      Ooh yeah, I know about that and NewPipe has this issue but I don’t understand if is app only or web browser too but I’ll see when I try it

      Because of various issues, Invidious must be restarted often, at least once a day, ideally every hour.

      It is, no idea why
