You can seed, but you’re depending on other people opening their ports to seed and download.

This is the correct answer. It’s about having choices. I very often forget to charge my wireless when I need it and when it’s dead, all I have to do is pull my wired out since my phone has the headphone jack. And when I work, I use my wired to listen to music, because in that situation, wired is simply superior. So I will always buy a phone with a headphone jack because I don’t want a perfectly workable, harmless feature that I need to be taken away from me.

Might just be bias, but this just feels lacking compared to the old art… I hope that once I start watching I will warm up to the new style.

From a user’s perspective, Piped does basically 2 things:

• It acts as a middleman between you and YouTube, so YouTube can’t trace your activities back to you.
• It gives you its own front-end free of ads and trackers.

This will work only if you open the link in a new tab:

• Install LibRedirect.
• Set up all the Piped instances you’d like to use for YouTube redirect.
• On “General”, under “Excluded from redirecting”, add this as Regex: https?:\/\/(www\.|)youtube.com\/?$

imo the tab grouping extension in Firefox is way better than Chrome’s built-in solution. I can’t remember the name though since I’m on mobile.

Just gotta look for instances and hope one of them works well. Generally I’ve never run into a situation where no instances work.

I’d like one. Thanks for the raffle!

Well, it is tech, what do you expect?

Anyone able to come up with this tech has the choice to just leave and work elsewhere.

lol Firefox + adblock beat Chrome any day.

Even if I go along that line of thought, few years ago when I was using Chrome it started scanning my computer without any notice, causing the fan to run hard.

I stopped using that creepy POS immediately and switched to Firefox. Never again a browser can just make a decision to scan my computer to “protect” me from whatever.
