problem description

Thanks a lot for this project, it's amazing. I'm trying to host cobalt as a service that will serve a moderate load. One problem I faced quickly is youtube IP blocking. I'm impressed how you are able to maintain cobalt as a hosted service on your website cause I'm assuming you get a good amount of traffic.

I don't have good understanding on how to use cookies/oauth/etc. Are cookies created from incognito sessions or from logged in youtube premium account, is this something automatically done or done once manually.

Could you please share some self hosting tips and setup so that I could avoid youtube IP blocking at scale similar to your hosted instances.

Thank you

your instance configuration
