MODERATORS
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.
JS? Oh no just like every other website it uses JavaScript
