        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.

            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.

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