    Invidious got hit by a cease and desist so they might be shutting down their operations. But yes, I believe it would be immune to those blocks unless they change their API.

      so they might be shutting down their operations

      Even if the current core team, for whatever reason, becomes unable to continue working on Invidious, someone will eventually fork it, and the operation will continue as normal :)

      That’s how free software works, and that’s what happened with YouTube Vanced :)

        Eh, possible. I’m not too up to speed on the whole issue tbh.
