Not sure, how long Google is at it, it may just be new to me, but today the wife googled for something, and she couldn’t get there as the response was “can not connect”. “Fix the internet NOW!”, was my order.

Analysing the link on Google’s page, it displayed the link as https://www.example.com/, but it actually goes to https://googleadservices.com/?blabla, which is blocked by our DNS, therefore the error.

Displaying one link, but going to another is misleading, lying, tactics of phishers and scammers, IMO.

Is this new, or is it just me, who never clicks on the first result of a Google search?

    I wish I could use invidious without problems. I host my own locally and set it to restart the docker every hour like they mentioned in their guide, what makes me say “fuck it” is the fact that some videos play normally, then they stop for whatever reason (docker restarts OR NOT) and from then it loads the video, refreshes a few times and then the video is unplayable because of some “error decoding the video” or whatever it says (image below) and restarting docker or reloading the page does nothing and that video becomes unplayable
