So, I had an idea for an Invidious alternative that would be pretty difficult for YouTube to block. Basically, YouTube can block instances because it is really easy to detect which IP is making a lot of requests. But what if everyone using Invidious were an instance? Like, if one person wants to watch a video, they would get it from a random person using this software. I don’t really know how it would be done—if it would be something like torrents, which have a direct connection, or if it would go through some server in the middle. This is just a suggestion; I don’t really know how I would implement it. But if it can be done and someone wants to do it, it would be great.
I think this is absolutely doable to problem is you need to have enough users on all the time to make this sort of thing work soa doptionn is important. You could probably piggy back off existing open source projects to get it going.
