Second Wind is the journalist team formerly from The Escapist with a few additions. They cut themselves loose from their contracts to make gaming news and analysis videos independently. This video looks at the outrage cycle that’s evolved around video game releases since the 2010’s

    Tried it again… all 8 sources are down.

    This is the thing I dont get about invidious, TBH. A YouTube proxy is never going to work unless its self hosted. Wouldnt it make more sense to use an alt YT client plus a VPN?

    Im not blaming you or the hosts/devs or anything, but it just seems like a impossible war for these instances.

      Hmm. I am on a VPN and used those links with browsers and newpipe. This might be region locked fuckery. I tend to get the most video mobility by using S. America servers like Panama and Chile that aren’t in places that disclose to the fifteen eyes counties.

      I’ll see if any Second Wind content has found its way out into peertube but that’s hit or miss. Do you recommend anything in particular?

        Actually, I tried again, and it seems to work on my desktop! But it still doesn’t work on my iOS phone. It must be some specific incompatibility with mobile?

        No, I got no recommendations for an alternative, unfortunately.
