2 years agoIt’s a cat and mouse game with Google blocking the Piped proxy IP address of popular instances, and then those instances getting a new IP to use for it.
Solution is to use smaller instances or self host your own small/private instance, issue with that solution is that then the small instances become popular and the cycle continues.
On mobile some apps like LibreTube can disable the piped proxy and make a direct connection instead (which also lets Google see your IP), but I don’t know any way to disable piped proxy for public instances on PC
If you’re open to recommendations, sideloading uYou+ (via altstore or other methods, no jailbreak needed) is sort of like ReVanced but for iOS.
There’s also Yattee which is on the App Store or you can sideload it. It can connect to a Piped or Invidious instance to play YouTube vids.
Both of them are open source if that’s important for you
