Spoofing Chrome magically makes this problem go away. The slow down is 5 secs according to the video.
Update 1: Safari faces the same treatment
Update 2: Google confirms 5 sec delays for ad-block user

Piped is just too inconsistent for me. I gave it a solid month or two, but half the time I open it up none of the instances are loading any videos. Eventually I gave up and looked into other options, ended up using FreeTube.
Freetube on desktop, Newpipe on android. This is the way.
Revanced would like to know your location
Freetube is the best
This is what I do as well
It does have it’s issues, can’t deny that. Can use LibreTube as Android app and 99.9% of my youtube viewing is on mobile
How does libretube compare with revanced?
Libretube is a totally different app whereas Revanced is just some patches on top of the official YouTube app, so the feature sets are going to vary a lot between the two. Libretube doesn’t let you log in to a Google account at all (but it does support importing a subscription list).
Any method for blocking ads / patching chromecast? My kids and I do the majority of our YT surfing from the couch.
Not that I know of, sorry! It looks like third-party apps like Newpipe don’t support Chromecast :/
