I mean with how many upvotes your comment has, I think it means something is different between my experiences and other people’s. I’m just not sure what the cause of the difference is.
Because Privacy isn’t 1 or 0 situation. It is granular thing you may think using YouTube crosses the line but others might not agree.
We as a community can choose what crosses the line for this community.
Personally I am fine with YouTube links, there is usually a bot posting a more private link down below if you want. It makes it easy to pick one of the other it isn’t that big of a deal.

There’s some bot that links to piped, but i’d prefer people stop using youtube as a source for information / shilling their channel
piped often doesnt work for me… not sure why
It takes forever to load. Did you let your tea go cold before giving up?
Wait it takes forever for you? Like the piped app? Mine has been instant for the last 2 years. Like straight up faster than the Youtube offical app
Maybe I’ll try again, could have been a bad day, but my experience was bad enough I could not justify considering it as a viable alternative.
I thought it was unresponsive until I put my phone down to make some tea, came back and it just then started to play.

Yeah I just tried another one, it took 21 seconds to begin playing the video from when I pressed the play button.
