Presumably this is due to recent actions regarding adblockers over at Youtube.

In my eyes, Piped and such are the ideal solution, not peertube. Not, because peertube is bad, but because with using Piped, you can have your videos and you can have them on a FOSS surface, but leave the nasty tasks like paying for enough storage to host all those videos to the data guzzlers who get denied their return. Some real Robin hood shit right there.

Piped will work as long as youtube allows them too and not a second longer. Reliance on an actor that hates you, isn't the "ideal solution". Newpipe breaks every time google decides they want to change how youtube works and invidio, freetube, piped, etc. all do too when that happens. That's far from ideal.
