Piped is much slower than regular YouTube and it's definitely a serious convenience hit but I guess that's what you pay for a free (as in beer and freedom) privacy improvement unfortunately.
hmm i dont know but since updating Preloading (under Player settings) to max limit (450s), videos are now more stable when using piped instances (adminforge.de). stable meaning no slow buffers/loading times. there are still some videos that doesnt load at all so i disable proxy if need to watch
When some videos don't play, change the instance. It often helps
