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. @ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net
Yes I know they killed invidious and something else… Can’t remember just now… I’ll look into the others but a storage card for more dls isn’t an option.

The client, yes. I was thinking you may have been under the impression that it would download each video to your hard drive to view them first, which would use a tremendous amount of storage.
The client itself is 262mb installed, at least on my windows PC.
Google fully killed Invidious. The new recommendation is FreeTube combined with Libredirect add-on in Firefox.

Thank you
DLS? Data lake storage?
Downloads. Sorry.
Ah! I thought for a second it could be that, but when I looked it up and saw things relating to data centers, I wasn’t sure.
Freetube just streams things directly, so you should be able to watch with it without any additional storage requirements.
It appears I’d need to dl the client? It’s very late for me so I’m scrolling and enjoying warmed milk. I may have misunderstood.
