Curious Why would anyone use piped instead of Newpipe or Yt-dlp?

[–] noodlejetski@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

because some people want to watch videos on their desktop PCs, in the browser, without downloading them.

There are numerous media players like mpvthat can stream youtube. These instances are not only slow, they also sell their user's information. Edit piped also requires JavaScript to run.

Edit2: I wont be replying further. As they all are just spamming same argument again and again.
