Piped.video (on Firefox) works fine for me
Piped is so slow for me, I'm not sure if it's a me issue or a host issue. I finally spun up viewtube to test it out since running my own piped instance seemed cumbersome.
Same here. I tried loading the same 13-second video on Piped and YouTube. YouTube played it instantly. Piped took several seconds (probably longer than the video lasted) to start playing.
To be fair, Piped serves as a proxy, you're not getting the content served directly from YouTubes' servers
Yeah it works file for 720/1080p and no captions.
