Just use a different instance. Alternatively you can use peertube

"just do this or that."

while I appreciate the attempt to help and provide options, I think your reply largely misses the point of discussing this. Google is going to keep shutting down those options until there aren't any left, just like Reddit with Libreddit / Safereddit.

Well both of those reddit alternative frontends used the api. Piped scrapes the pages and gets the stream url, similar to teddit, which still works.
