Is Piped dead? (lemmy.world)

Hello! I was wondering, since piped.video has not been working for quite some time ("Sign in to confirm you are not a bot" error), if it's ever going to work again or if it is just dead. Thanks for any advice on this topic

I never saw that error on my instance, so it might be something in the configuration of your's

It's not a configuration issue Google has blocked nearly all instances with larger usage numbers for piped.

If you're self hosting or using a smaller instance you'll be OK though especially of it's not on the main list

What instance do you recommend?

OP says "my instance" so judging from thay and a fact it works for them I'll assume they are self-hosting

I’ve been getting this consistently too

I was forced to move my instance to my home IP. I think Google is flagging anything that might not be residential, mobile. I’m only really using it as a backend for iOS devices using Yattee.
