Piped instances proxy the requests. Some invidious front end proxy but you have to look into it.
I use piped.video for most of my yt needs. You can upload your subscriptions there.
Looking in the NewPipe settings I found a place to enter instances and there is one already configured. I guess I was proxied the whole time without realizing. Thanks for the clarification btw.
If you mean the peertube instances setting, that's for a different platform.
Damn. You're correct. My brain saw instance and ignored the rest.
piped.video (with default instance: kalvin.rocks) doesn’t work a lot of the time. You can use other instances instead if that is the case.
You can change the instance from preference menu.
I thought it was kavin.rocks piped frontend.
Yeah. I know, but expressed it in a bas way. Edited it and now it should be clear :)
