The Invidious footer needs to be redone almost completely.

Super quick and dirty draft (it's missing the link to an about page / to the AGPL text on the GNU website):

What do you think of having the ability to add a "contact the maintainer" button like on Searx at the bottom of the page?

@unixfox In the about page, as I said before, should be a lot better.

Due to the massive amounts of items Invidious needs within the footer I don't think the current bar-like design would work very well. It looks too cramped. Instead I propose a footer block:

2-1

Of course this also means that the footer would be hidden from view unless scrolled to. I do think that's a worthy trade off though.

If we must preserve the current footer design then I think we should at least remove as much as possible. Something along the lines of this:
