A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Anyone who's been using privacy-respecting frontends for some time will recognise Piped. A YouTube frontend with no ads, integrated SponsorBlock, return dislikes, and a customisable UI.

Piped also allows you to subscribe to as many channels as you want without ever logging into a Google account. You can export your subs list from YouTube and import them to Piped seamlessly.

If you've never heard of it, give it a glance at https://piped.video. For more instances, check here.

Piped js no longer working since YT started blocking Ad-blockers.

that's weird, it's working fine for me. maybe you could try hopping to a smaller instance and see if that helps? maybe it's also a regional thing im unaware of.

What do you mean exactly? I just tried it and it and Piped seems to work just fine.

EDIT: Found what someone else said. Basically have to bounce instances and find one that it'll work on, since they rate limit instances at times.....
