youtube frontend problem

Whenever I try to load any video on this website, I get this:


Oh no! Forbidden

Why am I seeing this?

It seems to be a customized Anubis, let it sit there for a bit and it should give you access to the page.

Here is the crazy thing, an admin successfully got it working with palemoon. Weird...

I clicked on the link, went to the page in a second or two of time. Then picked out two videos to watch. One video was the "500 scammers trapped in a maze" and the other video was the linux distro "AnduinOS".

I clicked on your link again and this time, the site loaded within one second of time. I clicked on "FBI Profiler Reveals TERRIFYING Mind of a Serial Killer" and after about three seconds of time, it started to play.

At the time of this posting, I am using 64 bit linux Pale Moon 33.8.1.1 running in 64 bit MX Linux 23.6 (Libretto) Xfce. I also have uBlock Origin 1.16.6.0 enabled (turned on) for the site.

Different times of day, different regions of the world or regions of the country, inv.nadeko.net can sometimes have significant problems mirroring content from youtube. It's probably because youtube is constantly changing things up to make it more difficult for nadeko, yt-dlp and others to pass through videos to us.

Youtube thinks that if we were unable to access their videos via these alternative means that we would be likely to pay for a subscription to their premium service instead. What they don't realize is that if we were unable to access their videos through alternative means that we would probably stop accessing youtube videos altogether. It's not like we don't have other options - at this point a large number of youtube content creators are already mirroring their uploads to odysee, rumble, and others.

I found out the problem...

my ublock origin was using this:
https://gitlab.com/malware-filter/phishing-filter

My advice? don't use that!

I've been using inv.nadeko.net for months, and as problematic as Invidious has been in getting around YouTube's new blockages it does better
than nerdvpn.de, yewtu.be and the f5.si usually. If you go to Invidious redirect: redirect.invidious.io you can try all of them. Nadeko definitly needs third party cookies to work or the Error: access denied: denied by administrative rule will not allow it to load. inv.nadeko.net is not listed in the phishing-filter at the gitlab.com/malware-filter/phishing-filter list but the third party cookies throws this error every time. Like vannilla said it takes a moment to process the page fully. Once the 3rd party cookies are loaded there won't be any wait time from this time forward. You can scan inv.nadeko.net through virustotal, urlvoid and metadefender cloud and is found clean by multiple scanners. You can use these scanners to check the other three Invidious sites if you like.

Another option to allow playback is to go to any video at inv.nadeko.net and click the preferences to the left of the LOG IN icon at the top right of the page and under Preferred video quality: change DASH to Medium - then scroll down to Content country: and select another one to try like DE or US then check the box: Automatic instance redirection (fallback to redirect.invidious.io): then save preferences. And finally you can try the multiple Switch Backend: tabs at the top of each video and one will usually work when another won't. This has been working well for me.
Hope this helps :)
