Please use tools like https://github.com/LuanRT/YouTube.js or any other tool that lets you get video information from Youtube. I will start blocking/rate-limiting generic User-Agents that are generally used on http libraries like `axios/1.x.x`, `python-requests`, `Go-http-client/2.0` and so on. Please be ethical and don't spoof your User-agent to make it look like a browser!; Just change it to something that identifies your program. +Also, if you want to download videos a ton of videos, please don't use Invdious! Use https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp or https://cobalt.tools/ (Donate if you find this useful, BANDWIDTH COSTS ARE NOT CHEAP!) + If you use Invidious a lot and you are have the knowledge and resources to host Invidious yourself, I recommend you to do it instead of struggling with the constant blockages of my instance. I hope you all can understand <3
