YEWTU.BE = YOUTUBE + no adverts... 

@freeschool Yewtu.be is just one of the many Invidious instances.
There are other servers too : docs.invidious.io/Invidious-In
Invidious is also open source that can be self hosted.

@praveenkumar Yewtu.be is a great short memorable version - but you're right many different website names and instances exist using Invidious.

A list of instances here:
redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=

And thanks to project makers:

@freeschool @praveenkumar

youtube has been blocked in China.
I tried some invidious instances. They are also blocked.
I am looking for useable services for accessing youtube videos from China.

@Acer @praveenkumar about YouTube
--> I would also start to use youtube less ---> this isn't the whole solution but also to think how we couldn't always use it

- for example I have access but some days I use it 0 times or pretend I can't. Also because it's Google

- I use it like I'm *spending* money or processor power

- I also imagine Invidious isn't the answer either in the gradual de-spending of energy

try 'weaker' less maniac entities like framasoft's PeerTube
sepiasearch.org/
(which I also think is still energy intensive but not the crazy all-you-can-eat type)

- Let me know your usage privately and I can think about it more but streaming things is unrealistic luxury (like having more light by burning a candle at both ends for a shorter time)

@Acer @freeschool Simplest way I could think of is to use a VPN service. You can also setup your own using tools like PiVPN on a cloud instance from Linode, DigitalOcean or Vultr for privacy reasons.

@Acer @praveenkumar
Try more servers using this kind of link (maybe you know already)

redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=

change Video ID (Ht56t_UMwsc)
to whatever you want

Advantages that might work for you:
-- there are many new servers (you only need 1 or two)
-- they are spread in all geographic regions
-- with obscure names/URLs...
