I exclusively use NewPipe on my phone, and it works well (although it seems comments broke recently, but I'm sure it'll be fixed in due course), but I try to use Piped on PC and I find that it is significantly slower, most videos I have to play at 720p or lower, and it usually takes 20+ seconds to initially load. Being in Australia probably doesn't help
Is there any other alternatives that I should consider?
I found FreeTube just recently and I really like it so far. It's a desktop app that uses electron and the Invidious API. It supports 1080p and is really snappy, at least for me. https://freetubeapp.io
If you want a native client for Piped on your phone, check out LibreTube
If you want something closer to NewPipe on your PC, check out Invidious, Tubo or FreeTube if you want a native client. There's also an Invidious client for Android called Clipious.
You can also try out Tubular on your phone, it's a fork of NewPipe with some nice extra features like SponsorBlock integration
On my phone I use Libretube and for desktop I use Invidious.
The thing with Libretube is you have to flip though instances to get it to work.
