Daily Invidious Restarts
I was having some issues with Invidious the other day, which I resolved. However, I came across this tidbit of info that I’d never seen before when I first deployed it:
Post-install configuration: Highly recommended Because of various issues, Invidious must be restarted often, at least once a day, ideally every hour.
docs.invidious.io/installation/#windows
Anyone else observing this weird restart schedule?

I haven’t had to adjust or look at my invidious instance configs in a long time, but I do remember that in their docker instructions and I think I configured my container to restart hourly (or maybe I made it every other hour? Daily?). I’ve had no problems with my invidious instance in a long time, but that may have nothing to do with frequent restarts.

I think thats what I’ll do. Write a script, fired by a cron, to restart all three containers hourly and see how that goes. As I said further down, or up where ever this comment lands, that I do, on rare occasions, have issues with it. So, restarting couldn’t really hurt I wouldn’t think.
