Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/benbusby/whoogle-search/issues/148

Describe the bug
URL's for Invidious are using the www.invidiou.site domain, which leads to a dead end because it has a bad certificate.
Perhaps they should be translated to invidiou.site (without the www part) which works.
Not sure if this is a Whoogle issue or one in Invidious (they may fix their certificate), but might be worth considering.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Configure your Whoogle to translate social links
Search for Ariana Grande Thundercat “Them Changes” Adult Swim
Scroll a bit down to find the Invidious link for that clip
Click the link, you get a certificate error.

Deployment Method

[ x] Heroku (one-click deploy)
Docker
run executable
pip/pipx
Other: [describe setup]

Version of Whoogle Search

Latest build from [source] (i.e. GitHub, Docker Hub, pip, etc)
[x ] Version [0.2.1]
Not sure

Thanks for letting me know, the www subdomain issue has been fixed with 2ecde83860. The invidious instance has also been updated to use the one from snopyta.org, since the health of that instance seems to be a lot better.
