Additional information

• I added custom CSS, let me know if I need to publish that in a doc/repo (it's from NerdVPN).
• I'm using go-away and blocking the API.
• I am experimenting with Cloudflare, so I can leave it off if needed. It doesn't cache anything. Instead, I use Varnish.
• I am working on more backends, currently they rotate as to not overuse what is available.
• I have a custom status page. (my blog needs some work)
• I only disable downloads for now. I will enable popular if I get anyone registering.
  Thank you!

Hello! Your instance has been added to our monitoring system: https://updown.io/3y2q
You need to wait 30 days before we add your instance, this is to evaluate that your instance will keep a good uptime for one month.

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

Please consult these two important tutorials:

• 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/

It is highly recommended to follow these tutorials because it will allow the instance to stay stable and performant over the long term.

Hello do you have IP rotation?

[chocolatemoo53]

Hello, yes, I do.

Hello, make sure that you whitelisted the uptime tracker: https://updown.io/3y2q. It says 403 forbidden.

Hello, it was a rule that was too strict, it is currently allowed. I should have fixed it. Thanks.
