Started this morning. All of my personal tools like nextcloud and RSS reader were blocked, and I had to go manually override that screen for each one. Unacceptable.

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

The problem is just that it's too susceptible to being used to trick users, the services hosted on .zip domains aren't evil by default, like your instance that is completely legit.
