Hello! Your instance has been added to our monitoring system: https://stats.uptimerobot.com/89VnzSKAn/794316310 You need to wait 30 days before we add your instance.

Make sure you double checked all the mandatory checks or this will slow down the process of adding your instance!

Broken certificates can't add your instance: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=invidious.protokolla.fi&latest

Reopen when you have fixed the issue.

[RoyTakanen]

Sorry for the late response, I have fixed the issue and now the ssllabs test reports A+ status.

I also moved the instance from Germany (Oracle) to Finland (Hetzner dedicated server). There was no downtime nor data loss. I will also edit the original issue regarding this.

Hello, your instance is affected by the issue: https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/issues/3822

Please have a look for a temporary solution: https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/issues/3822#issuecomment-1565401621

We urge you to keep an eye on your instance as youtube is constantly trying to block invidious.

[unixfox]

Hello @RoyTakanen,

We have recently released two major tutorials for improving your public instance.

• Escaping the YouTube block (403 errors in playback): https://docs.invidious.io/ipv6-rotator/
• Improving the performance and the stability of your public instance: https://docs.invidious.io/improve-public-instance/

We highly recommend you to follow our tutorials because your instance is unfortunately in a state where it is not working well for your users.

If you need help please either ask in the invidious room on matrix or here.

[RoyTakanen]

Hello @unixfox.

Thanks for reaching out! These tutorials seem to be exactly what I have been looking for. I will look into implementing these improvements in the next week.

[RoyTakanen]

Hello @unixfox. I have applied the changes, thanks a lot for the link. I also moved in this process the server from Finland to Germany. Could this new data be updated to api.invidious.io?

[RoyTakanen]

Hello @unixfox. I have done some changes and now my server is living back in Finland. Could you update this new information to the invidious instance list :)?

[unixfox]

It has been a long time since your instance hasn't been on the list. Please create a new issue so that we can review again your instance. Thanks

[RoyTakanen]

Huh, what do you mean it hasn't been on the list? I am looking at https://api.invidious.io/ and it is there.

[unixfox]

Oops my bad! I was too tired when I wrote this message.

my server is living back in Finland

I thought based on this comment that you wanted to be added back in the list.

If you want to change the flag of an instance please create a pull request :). Thanks

[RoyTakanen]

Haha :D, I understand. I will create one. Thanks a lot!
