Really cool, particularly the inbuilt sponsorblock and dislikes. Those are something I've been missing in my own Invidious. I'll still stick with the original interface, but keep up the good work!

Going through Anna's Archive also works, they usually have zlib links

Correct on all counts. I'll try some other DNS servers later. Right now I'm using the Mullvad DNS servers, any suggestions for ones that support DNS over TLS?

Some further tests make it look like dig is influenced by some caching stuff going on on my PC. I figured that out while playing around with a TXT record for testing purposes, and noticing that host and dig return different results for the same input.

Running the commands again on my phone using Termux reveals that the AAAA record is in place and functioning, but I still can't reach the website from my browser by using the domain name.

Thanks for the answer! Unfortunately, the response from dig AAAA is rather lackluster:

I'm starting to suspect Namecheap just hates IPv6. Their dynamic DNS service only covers v4, too

Correct! Single AAAA record pointing to the IP of my server, which I verified beforehand.

My host records consist of a single AAAA record that points to the IP address of my server, which I verified beforehand. I've tried dig, but I'm not sure how to interpret it's output, which looks as follows:

The DNS issue persists. The part that my friend helped me with was determining if I configured my router firewall correctly, which I did. Currently I can reach my server from the internet only directly via its IPv6 address, with no progress on binding it to my domain name.

The firewall port on my router is open, and as far as I can tell, my server isn't running a firewall at the moment. ~~ICMP might be a problem; ipv6-test tells me that those are filtered out.~~ After checking my router settings, I've determined that ICMP is enabled for the device in question.

Tried my mobile connection already, doesn't have IPv6. Also tried a nearby hotspot, same issue.

More I2P torrenting support

Just as the founding fathers intended.

YouTube is already a sedated, anaemic whale of a website. Adblock probably makes it run faster, given it usually removes stuff rather than add it. If you want speed, I recommend a frontend such as Invidious or Piped, it's what I use on my weaker laptops where YouTube takes half a minute to load.
