Pro would just be not directly connecting through Google/YouTube servers, and instead using a proxy. Its a nice privacy benefit. I agree it could make things slower, so I don't think it should completely replace direct connection with YouTube, but I just think the option would be nice to have.

Yeah a Piped option would be pretty great tbh, and probably most people wouldn't notice the additional latency maybe?
