    Am I the only one who can’t get piped links to work for longer than like 30 seconds? They usually don’t even play for me, but this video played for a few seconds before crashing and giving me error code 3004. Just curious if I’m missing something supremely basic. YouTube ads have become so goddamn intrusive that I’m not fucking with them, and ublock keeps getting outsmarted. I miss the old days of a short ad every ten minutes or so of content. I’m not putting up with multiple ads for this fucking 4 minute video.

      If you’re on Android I use NewPipe. Pretty reliable. It’s in FDroid and I’m pretty sure Github.

          Piped does, NewPipe is a different project and as far as I know it’s Android app only. There’s also Freetube (browser and I think apps), invidious (which I think is federated) , and I’m pretty sure the revanced app is still going strong. I’m sure other people are more in the know than I am but hopefully that can help. I don’t know how active it is but Piped has a Lemmy that might be able to help you as well. https://feddit.rocks/c/piped. Have a great day!

            Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !piped@feddit.rocks
